I would love a family dog. We had one when I was growing up and would love that for our family.
Trouble is I work part time so dog would be home alone. 3 days pw. I would,d of course pay for a walker but still....
If that hurdle is surmountable, there is also the issue of breed. I want a small dog, good with kids, not too energetic. One that doesn't shed ( DS has allergies).
Ideally would love to rehome a dog but at same time would like to know the dogs history. So thinking....buying a puppy more realistic.
So is dog owning possible for us and if so any suggestions as to breed? I quite like poodle cross the dogs and also terriers if that helps.
