I get up 3 or 3 1/2 hrs., before I have to go to work, so the pups can play...Then I come home, after about 4 or 5 hrs. to let them out and play for about 15 minutes and let them outdoors...Then it's back to work for another 3 1/2 or 4 hrs....They're usually up, in the evening from about 6-9:30 or 10, and then they're ready for bed....They seem to be o.k. w/it...I am getting ready to turn one of my bedrooms into their room, in case they want to play, while I'm at work...On my days off, they follow that pattern, pretty much anyway...I do spend every possible minute w/them, when I'm home...The only time they're not w/me, is nails/hair/grocery shopping, etc...Dogs are amazing, and I think they adjust to most situations, if they're given lots of love, good food, a warm and safe environment, and a few little toys to play with... |
