Ok so I am
Thinking about getting a dog later this year. I have dds nearly 2 and nearly 5. I am a lp and work 3 days a week. I will be hiring a dog walker the two days both kids in nursery but have family childcare the other day and they will walk the dog.
I live in a semi with garden 3 sides which I am getting fenced better before dog arrival so it will have plenty of space etc.
When it's settled with me it will be possible to take my dog to work with me quite a bit.
I would like to take the dds to view some puppies quite soon but I'm insure about breeds. I envisage the dog being quite small and though I don't want a crazy hectic dog I do want it to play with the kid. I love cockers but wonder if one would be too much for me.
I like jrs too. That kind of size anyway and my aunt has a mini Schnauzer (sic) which is gorgeous and the dds love it.
I'm trying to make a v informed decision before I commit to a dog and really welcome any advice
I had a dog pre dc but a rescue greyhound. Amazing dog but can't imagine her with small children she wasn't that kind of dog....
