Now we have moved into a house with a pet friendly community, and our two kids (S, 6 and L, 9) are asking for a puppy. As much as we would love to adopt one (and we have looked into one many times), financially we can't. I work part...

I have had two dogs at one time all of my life. I can walk them or babysit them. I can even train them to do a few easy tricks like sit, rollover, come, and stay. Or I can train them not to relieve themselves in the house (but that would take 3 months).
