Thanks again for everyone's input (I would've responded more frequently but apparently every message needs mod approval lol) - for the next couple/few weeks I'm gonna have my friend puppy-sit and then after that, well, I don't know.
My vet relieved me of some of the worry that y'all were causing me lol - I'm not thrilled about leaving her home alone for extended periods of time, and I may not even have to, but at this point it's more about social issues and coming home to find my place destroyed - my vet says, at least with Lucy's weight, she's not worried about hypoglycemia; which was something I more or less dismissed when the store clerk was telling me about it (and made me sign a paper about it too!).
But Lucy's such a sweetie that I've already got no fewer than two families willing to watch her for me (of course, this may be because she's a small puppy- things might change when she gets older) but eventually I will do the doggy day care thing. One that I found so far opens after I have to be at work and closes before I get off haha. The search continues! |
