Though I agree that getting a yorkie is better when you are at home, I will have to add I know I don't have that luxury just yet. I have to work, but I don't think I should sacrifice my love for yorkies just because I have to work. I work full time, but let me tell you, Coco is one of the most well adjusted and happy dogs I've ever seen. I will admit that my social life has gone out the window but I don't care. It is possible to have a puppy and have it get used to your schedule. I put Coco's baby gate up when I leave and she is fine with it. She just chomps on her breakfst and sleeps. I've recorded her while I'm at work. She just sleeps, pees and poops, and she has enough room to play with her toys. When I get home, she gets the royal treatment EVERYDAY! So while I agree that it's best when you're home a lot more, to get a puppy, it's not such a terrible thing if you have to work. As long as you give them love and attention from the time you come home to the time you go to sleep. JMO |
