I know you said you couldn't afford another yorkie, but what about looking at local shelters for a small breed that would be cheaper than a yorkie, and a best pal for Leo? We originally adopted our lab for our golden, then evantually got Ranger- for me! We joke that Nitro (lab) is Lila's (goldie) dog! She stopped chewing things in the house after we got him because they keep each other company.
I work at home two or three days per week and can attest to the fact the dogs mostly sleep ALL DAY! Ranger doesn't sleep as much as the others, but he's only nine months. When he's not sleeping, he lays down and chews a bone for hours.
Good luck and don't make any quick decisions. |
