I got home from lunch EVERYDAY...I wont ever skip a day! But I dediciate my lunch to him making sure he eats play and get his excerise. I make sure to show him LOTS OF LOVE when I am there just to let him know that there is someone that really loves him and that you arent going anywhere!!! PM me if you have any questions..I would be happy to help. |
I am 100% in the same boat. My fiance is deployed as well and he bought her for me so I would have a buddy and something to love on and take care of while he's gone. I do the same thing, I go home on my lunch break EVERYDAY and play with her EVERY SECOND. She was having a problem with the crate training at first but I got rescue remedy and she is 100% different. No barking or crying now at all. She is a very happy puppy!
