How many hours do you spend with your Yorkie(s) ? - Page 2 - YorkieTalk.com Forums

LaviniaHyacynth · 01-21-2006, 09:34 PM

I am an artist and work in a studio all day and sometimes night

Vivi is right there next to me except for the times that we go out for walks or run errands

I'm a stay at home mom AND I work from home so I'm with Chewy A LOT. I leave him home when I pick my son up from school and if we go to the park, he may be at home alone for about 3 hours. The rest of the day I'm with him.

On the weekends it's a little different. He'll be home alone for longer periods of time although depending on what we are doing, he'll sometimes come.

I also work from home most of the time and usually take at least one with me when I am out running errands but when I read the "one on one" that stopped me because I am not actually devoting ALL of my attention to them 24/7...even though they are WITH me...I took this to be asking how much time do I spend playing with, walking, grooming, feeding and training them? So I answered 3 to 4. They sleep with me and there is always at least one in my lap!!

I have classes on Monday, Wednesday, Fridays so those days I get home around 3pm and spend the rest of the night playing and cuddling with them....I get to spend all day on the other days with them!! On weekends we try to spend as much time with them as possible...if we go shopping we let them come with us!!!

Im home all day so I spend lots of time with scrappydoo

Claire · 02-03-2006, 08:08 PM

I put 1-2 hours. On a good day she gets more one on one time then that. What can I say, I have a baby too!
Gracie and I spend quality time together when Mia naps BUT that is also my time and time to catch up on household chores. Sometimes I let the dishes "soak" and the laundry sit and just play with Gracie the whole nap time. On a really good day, that's 2 two hour naps!!!!

1:1 I generally only have her alone about an hour a day. Since we have 2 pups, I spend most all day with both. Dan spends 2-3 hours alone with Dayzee while I take Bailey for therapy projects.

From morning to bed time is how long I spend with mine. they are just too precious not to spend as much time as possible with them.

Some would too much!

I'd say not enough!

LeslieA · 02-25-2006, 04:02 PM

HA! YAY a place where I'm not the minority! I take him everywhere absolutley everywhere ... I started ordering groceries online and having them delivered since that's the only store that won't let him shop with me...
