I am currently in the process of buying a house in a semi-rural area with well fenced garden. I have always wanted a dog and now think maybe the time is right.
However me and my other half work full time. I usually leave the house at 8am and get back around 5.20pm. The dog would come to the yard with me in the evenings and I generally have quite an outdoor lifestyle. Hopefully soon I will be working from home one afternoon a week and the same with my other half.
I am looking into dog walkers and would you think it be ok if the dog goes to doggy day care a 2 days a week and gets walked at lunch time on the remaining days? We are home weekends and the dog would always come with us if we go out.
Also Breed suggestions, I really like the look of Cockerpoo as they seem fun and dont moult much. I would love a dog I could do some agility with. My partner struggled with Asthma when he was young and skin conditions. My family when growing up has always had dogs so I would say I am experienced.
Opinions would be much appreciated.
