I work full time, leave the house shortly after 7:00 to get the boys to school (they attend 2 different schools) and get myself to work before 8:00. The oldest one is home by 3:00 and then I'm home any time after 5:00, depending on how late the youngest has baseball practice. Hubby works at the fire station, 24 hours on, 48 hours off - on his days off (he does pest control on those days), he leaves later in the morning that I do and is able to come home a couple times a day to let the furbabies out (we have 2). It will work with you having a full time job but...as someone else said, maybe there's more to your mom's concerns than just because you have a full time job. Follow the advice and talk to her before you spend your money on a yorkie. They are a special breed (to all us yorkie owners) and require a lot of attention (attention that they so deserve
) I wish you all the best and hope you and your mom can come to an agreement on this.
