Awww. That is so sweet! I think most dogs at home alone are probably a little bit lonely during part of the day. That's just the way it is for most of us who have to work. You are home by 1:00 and that's pretty early ~ so she's not home all day by herself.
If you are really worried about it; maybe consider finding a neighborhood friend who could let her out once before you get home at 1:00.
At some point, I ended up getting two dogs; but my first dog was four years old by then.
I think she will be fine while you are gone too - especially if your friend enjoys having her and gives her lots of attention.
We would love to see pictures of your baby!
