well, i have three, and they keep each other company, but when i had just the one to begin with, she would get very upset with me if she was alone for more than an hour....she would get into things that i thought i had put up, she would tear up the trash can, and all that...but a few options would be to leave her/ him with a family member while you are gone, or take her/ him to a doggie daycare, or as others have posted, purchase two so they can keep one another company. I think you should go ahead and get one.....the longer you wait, the more the chance is that you'll talk yourself out of it. |
