If you got an active breed, you would never be likely to need to consider the purchase of a home gym or other such questionable equipment to keep your weight down to sensible levels!...After about 2 years of age, well-trained dogs are not ever likely to damage furnishings... Until then, there is some (relatively small) risk that can be countered by sensible feeding, the ready presence of chew toys, lots of excercise(!), and regular opportunities for bodily functions...
YMMV, but I have found, from experience, that our house REQUIRES a dog to become "a home"...
