and I would really love to have a small dog to keep me company.( I would get a cat, but I am super-allergic) when I am home. I am out of the house from 6 in the morning to 6 at night, Monday, Wed, and Fri, and Tues/Thurs, I am out from 6 to 4, and home all weekend. So, I have a few questions, really?
1) Is it really worth it to get a dog? Are my hours too long and will it be unfair to the dog (potty, time spent, small living space, etc)?
2) Secondly, I need a dog which is relatively mellow and low-maintenance. I like pugs, boston terriers, and french bulldogs (I know nothing about these breeds though) Are there suggestions you could give me?
3) Training the dog. Should I do it myself, or pay for obedience school?
Any info or suggestions would be WONDERFUL. Thanks guys!
