[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am the same. When my dog and cat pass on, I will never own another animal. I don't understand why people are ok with following an animal around and picking up its poop. I got the dog because I love seeing people with their animals (the cat we inherited) - but I hate the smell and I especially hate having to plan my day around walking the dog. I have one hour in the morning before work - I could either lift weights and run or I can take the dog for a walk. But I have to walk the dog so my own health suffers. When I sit down to watch a movie in the evening, the dog wants to play. I'm a slave to the freaking dog. [/quote]

OP here. This is my problem too. I want to work out in the morning, like intensely when the family is asleep but she needs to be walked. [b]Then if she doesn’t poop, I have to watch her like a hawk to make sure she doesn’t poop in the house.[/b] She is not a dog that I can run with as she is small. That is why I asked another poster how long should I walk her to tire her out enough so that I can come home and work out? [/quote]

Perfect example of when you should be crating her during the day. You need to get your work out in, just crate her. I promise she will adjust and just sleep. [/quote]
