Hello! I am hoping to get some sort of small breed hypoallergenic dog. I work full-time in person though. I was wondering if it would be bad to leave the dog alone in my home for a few hours every day. I live close enough to come home for lunch everyday and spend about an hour with the pup walking it, feeding and playing with it. I was just wondering if it would be bad to leave it for a few hours in the morning until I come home for lunch and then a few hours in the afternoon until the rest of my shift finishes.

Here's the schedule I was thinking:

Wake up Walk the dog Feed him Crate him until lunch Come home at lunch and walk him again Feed/ water him Play with him Crate him until I come back after my shift is dobe Come home and play with him

• Once a week doggy school

And On weekends I would groom him

So you think my puppy would have a hard time being created that long in the day?
