just been to my sister's for a fortnight. she's a sahm abroad and I'm dead jealous. they have a lovely little rescue pup now nearly a year old who has stolen my heart as they do!
I've never owned a dog, so it would have to be a bit of an un demanding sort... walking twice a day is great, but long country runs/ of lead stuff , not till I've got my confidence.
biggest issue is I can usually get home for lunch but may not, so may be left for up to 6 hours. would a " dog flap" and safe garden our even a kennel and run be ok, or are these r really not the thing for a soft " people loving" dog?
don't want to even embark on thinking this if really it's not fair on the dog. what do you think?
