[quote=Anonymous]We work 9-5:30 and have a toddler -- we also have a puppy who is in his crate during the day. We have a walker come take him out and he gets long walks in the morning (45 mins) and another 45-60 minutes in the evenings. With two adults in the household it is still a lot of work -- are your kids old enough to help? My kid isn't good about walks with the dog so we have to do them either by ourselves or take whole family walks (one adult per dog/kid basically). It's tough, but doable. Fwiw, I had a coworker whose dog was home alone and could hold it for 13 hours). Dog was also low energy and happy to just run around the yard for 30 mins a day. Whatever you do, get a dog suited for your lifestyle and with energy and bladder needs that you can accommodate.[/quote]
