I grew up with dogs and would dearly love one of my own, particularly now that we've left London and have the space, a garden and lots of nearby parks.
The problem is that both DH and I work F/T (although some of it is work from home). But the dog could potentially be alone for up to 4 days per week. I would spare no expense for a daily paid dog walker but would like advice on whether this is a goer.
I would ideally like a rescue dog, but then what about separation anxiety? And I could take a couple of weeks off to settle the dog in, but what if it's not enough?
Thanks in advance.

The doghouse
Is it ever possible to have a dog if you both work F/T?
