[quote=Anonymous]Puppies are incredibly high-maintenance. They need to go outside every hour, and they need constant supervision. They also need a lot of attention from the alpha of the pack (that would be you and your husband) so they can learn proper pack behavior. (That would be called training.) If you're not going to put the time in yourself, I would hire a trainer and walker. The good news is that after he is trained and grown out of the puppy years, he'll require much less attention. You'll be able to graduate from crating to confining to a room or part of the house, and maybe even to letting him have the run of the house. Lots of adult dogs are perfectly happy to lounge around all day while you're working. And if you ever decide to get another dog in the future, skip the puppy and go straight to the senior.[/quote]
