Hello! Ask for assistance. I plan to get a Labrador, but I live alone and work. The working hours of the first shifts are from 7:30 am, ie I must have walked the dog before or maybe in another way? Is it a good idea? Thank you! 25 year old girl

Not.
Take it only if you live in a country house. Dogs bark a lot. The neighbors will go crazy. They are not for growing in the city.
The first walk should be your problem - the dog can walk at 5 and 6 in the morning. However, the problems are many, especially if you take a small puppy. It's like a baby, jumping, playing, biting, dropping out - he doesn't understand a word and is still learning habits and behavior, ie he is being educated. This requires a lot of time, time and patience on your part. All day if possible. There's no way the puppy can learn to pee outside if you don't take him off every hour, after every waking up, etc. There's no way he can't gnaw on everything he finds if you don't show him that you shouldn't and even if you are there it will try again, change teeth anyway). He will quickly understand the difference between being there and not being there. He will understand that when you cross the threshold in the morning and close the door, you will be gone and he will look for you. He'll whine, maybe you will. Sometimes they do it for a long time. How will your neighbors accept it? Well, yes, sooner or later he will stop after he either falls asleep or plays with whatever he finds and then falls asleep. But when he wakes up, he will still be looking for you with tears. You will be in a hurry to go home, to give him all the rest of the time, but these missed hours will be a breakthrough in the upbringing of the puppy, problems with neighbors, ruined furniture and slippers and a very lonely little puppy in a large room without his person. Therefore, if you cannot take leave, I will advise you to take a grown dog. Some people give their pets as gifts, you can find the desired breed. And the shelters are full of pitiful waiting dog eyes. It is not necessary to have a breed to love you more than anything. I am even convinced that dogs that have lived homeless appreciate human care and home, if someone takes them, more than those who have been our pets all our lives. Judging by mine, they look at me like their man, with an insistent look when they want and expect something, and the homeless look only with hope in their eyes and a silent request.
Why does this dog have to get on your beds and make you dirty? You don't have to clean his hair and dirt inside.
4, you just don't like dogs, so you accept them that way. I, as I wrote above, have and do not weigh neither the walk, nor the cleaning of hair, nor the dirt. It doesn't bother me to separate from the "bite", both for the dog I raised and for the homeless. Man does not have 2 hearts, one for humans and one for animals - man either has a heart or he does not! From 3
Oh, everything you say I am well aware of. Author Thank you. I will not do it precisely for the negative reasons, because they are not to be neglected. :)
Dogs are a very good thing. Labradors are one of the most playful and big bullies. So, in this aspect, know that this breed will require quite long walks and a lot of care. They also have quite capricious fur and stomach. Otherwise they are an irreplaceable friend. Judge your time well, because, as someone wrote above, a dog is a terrible commitment. I have personally watched 2 shepherds since I was a child and I know what we are talking about. It's just like having a child to take care of. Don't leave him alone for long. They suffer a lot and can get sick. Give him love so that he will reciprocate. No sense in telling you now - I don't wanna ruin the suprise. If you think you can't do it, you better not take the animal, because you will only ruin it. I leave aside the comment of 4, because it is obviously one of the people who do not like animals, and these are selfish, empty souls. I wish you success!!!
№4, you don't like animals at all, so you have no reason to write. A dog or cat should be kept only by people who really love animals and do not accept dramatic hair, droppings, torn furniture, etc. To the author: I have not raised dogs. I love and have raised cats. With a dog, things are definitely more complicated and time consuming. Indeed, if they are not there all day, things will not work out with a small puppy at all. If you want a dog so badly, it's better to get an older one. The other option is to let this be taught by a person. but it definitely won't work out without money.
If you are alone, I do not advise you to take a dog. The dogs walk at least 2-3 times a day (morning, noon and evening), in addition, if you leave only a baby puppy all day when you come home in the evening you will have surprises, it will be bitten, it will pee, the third will be torn down. .. just out of boredom. And imagine if you have to travel on a business trip. Who will watch the dog? You can't just leave him food and water, he needs walks ... who will hire him to walk 3 times a day? And it's every day! No winter, no summer. I'm not bored today or I fell asleep ... the dog has to be walked! Add to that a visit to the vet, if you and your dog want to be healthy you will have to vaccinate him every year, and while he is a little once every few months (just like your children have a list of which month what vaccine is given) ). And I advise you not to miss them, because some are against diseases that are dangerous to humans. So think twice, because watching a dog is almost like watching a baby. So think about it well, not to take a puppy and after 2 months seeing that it is not so easy to throw it on the street! Because the homeless have thus become homeless. Someone was tired of watching them.
To number 4 - super annoying comment. I have 2 dogs and I keep them in an apartment. They don't get on my bed or make dirt. There are people who just love animals and need such wonderful little ones!
See what this does not mean that I do not want animals inside, that I do not like them and I have a dog, it is a Caucasian Shepherd. With vaccines, I've seen everything with a passport and inside the animals are not for the inside, I say. I recommend you a small breed, I have an old dachshund inside which is 13 years old, never made white, my cat was a curse.
Author: I'm just lonely. I love animals very much, there is no animal I don't like, I think. One day I hope I can get a dog :) Thank you all!
Tuesday, get a bunny or a guinea pig. They will not suffer when you are not there, but when you come you will hug them as much as you want. This is the option for you.
Oh my God! People, are you okay? How are dogs bred in the village? And what about barking? Then let him go to live in the desert ... First let me say that if you raise your dog properly, everything will be 6. The Labrador is such a nice and smart breed ... as a child (13-14) I had a Labrador who gave me broke his nerves because he barked a lot (the breed is not barking, calm down, but he turned out to be "defective": D). However, I raised him like a dog from the barracks. He was so smart ... I took him to competitions - he won. Unfortunately, when he got 6 years old he saw a woman and ran after her ... he was hit by a garbage truck .. his spine was broken, his hind legs were rubbed ... there was no treatment and he fell asleep ... I still miss him. This is the worst thing, because you become attached to the dog as if it were your child ... and when you lose it, you can't swallow it. However, I took a dog again - Newfoundland and Pomeranian. There are two different characters, but I am a cynologist and I understand these things. The little puppies are pretty mean, you know ...: D If you're going to get a dog - get it from a kennel. If you take a large breed, either medium or even energetic, such as a Labrador, take it out in the morning before work for half an hour to run and in the evening when you come home (unless it is after 19:30 that the dog will urinate) and take it out for an hour, an hour and a half to run even more and get tired. :) М31 take him out in the morning before work for half an hour to run and in the evening when you come home (unless it is after 19:30 that the dog will urinate) and take him out for an hour, an hour and a half to run even more and get tired. :) М31 take him out in the morning before work for half an hour to run and in the evening when you come home (unless it is after 19:30 that the dog will urinate) and take him out for an hour, an hour and a half to run even more and get tired. :) М31
Get a Wavy parrot :) I say one to teach him to speak because being two is very difficult .. they are very fluffy and you will definitely not be lonely :) I will not give them for anything :)
get a fish or a kitten
Hi, my opinion is really better to get a parrot / and talking /. Parrots live about 100 years. And dogs much, much less and when the time comes and gone nothing replaces the pain, nothing. Regards,
