Can I leave a puppy alone during the day?
I am looking to get a german shepard for my home and am unsure what to do with it during the day. I live in the tropics and have a small&enclosed yard that i could leave him to wander in with an empty maids quarters for shade if its hot. Or I have a spare bedroom inside with tile floors, a/c and plenty of room to play. I work 10hr days but come home for 2 hrs at lunch so i will be there often to play, train, etc... (continued)

How to Dog- sit?

rodger and dodger: two ferrets doing a dog's job

for lila the labrador, each day is an adventure
I wouldn’t say that I’m a particularly downbeat person, but I do find myself sometimes greeting the day with a touch of trepidation. Worrying needlessly that I won’t be able to get through my long list of whatever. Our Labrador Lila, however, awakens each morning with a sense of adventure. Bursting with anticipation of all the amazing things the day might bring! I think to myself: THAT is the way to live.
