I say yes, include the dog, if he is a special part of your wife's life. To me portraiture is about capturing the personality of the person, a slice of their life, and when a pet is a prominent part of someone's life then it makes sense to include the pet. Of course, keeping the pet in "its place" and also working through the composition is important, but it sounds like you've already worked that out and so that will not be a problem.
