Ditto here! I don't care what anyone thinks about how I live or how I treat my dogs. I don't leave them alone for very long, but that's what I prefer and it's my business. I worked up until a year and a half ago and they had to stay alone all day, so I don't leave them alone for more than an hour or two now. My family knows how I feel and they are all OK with it. That's a good thing, because I wouldn't do any different even if they weren't OK with it. Hey, I pay the bills and I'll live my own life. I get a lot more from my dogs than I could ever give to them. My sister says in her next life she wants to be one of my dogs.
