It's not the perfect situation to be in, but who can talk down to you when most of the people who have pets and kids...WORK ALL DAY!!!!

If you can't or don't want two babies, find a routine that works for you. Be creative. Use a potty box. If you can, give your baby it's own room or large area to play in. Use a TV with the Animal Planet on all day. Some people buy DVD's made for dogs or use cartoons. They are like kids and need a creative environment. Make it fun (and SAFE) for your baby at home while you're gone to work. Don't listen to nay-sayers if you start coming up with outstanding idea's, because they will put them down if they don't love their dogs as if they were their children, or if they don't like dogs at all.
