Did anyone else have these severe feelings of anxiety after bringing a puppy home? Dolce is the sweetest pup in the world, and my feelings have nothing to do with her, really...more with myself. It's very hard raising a pup as a single, working woman, and I'm only a week and a half in. There are lots of factors that are playing into my anxiety. As I mentioned, I'm gone 10+ hours a day 3-4 days a week, and if I've learned anything on this forum it's that Yorkies need/crave a lot of attention. Is it fair for her to sit in her pen so much, especially without another friend to play with? I play with her when I get home, but living in an apartment is also another factor because she doesn't have a backyard to run around in when I'm doing something else. Thus the crying when she's away from me. Am I being too hard on myself or is it possible that a Yorkie isn't the right breed for me after all?
