Its a crappy situation for a puppy to have to fend for himself, but I'm just trying to work with it and make the best of it. Luckily, my husband works close enough to our home to walk Wall-E on his lunch break three times a week so that helps. For all the working folk out there- I'm sure you understand that its tough, but it doesn't make us bad dog owners for working. I've known some people who ARE home during the day and pay zero attention to their pets. Ultimately, as long as my yorkie knows he's loved (which I am working on  ) then he'll be ok! Does that make sense? |
that is why it is better to have 2 puppies... especially if you work..
not a perfect world .. but it is just better for everyone
