[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think adopting a dog who is at least a year is wise. Easier to house train. I did walk my dog 1/2 hour in the mornings and up to an hour at night. A tired dog is a happy dog.

I intended to crate as well, but my one year old adopted dog ever took to it, and was very happy to lay on a sofa all day in the sunshine, looking out the window. I got lucky, she wasn't destructive and didn't bark out the window.

I spent very little at the vet most of my dogs life. It gets expensive at end of life care. Do you know how you generally want to approach that? I don't believe in spending thousands of dollars to keep a pet alive, bit many do. There is let insurance available.

Buy a higher quality dog food. Invest in an obedience class.  Board your dog early if you plan on boarding for vacations, etc.

Oh. I did two periods of exercise for my dog each day (the walking), but let her out more often to wet, etc.  if you are planning to crate most of the time, like Pp said  I also don't think that's a great idea. I wouldn't crate while you are home at all.[/quote]
