Anyone ever hire a dog walker?
Have a little dilemma where next month I start an academy and ill be gone for 12 hours a day, 5 days a week... Not sure if I want my dog holding in his piss for that whole time
Yeah, you should try it out or a dog daycare, if you have one in your area. My brother hired one and gave the dog walker a key to their apartment, so he would pick her up mid-afternoon and walk her for about an hour with a couple other dogs. Eventually, my brother's dog ended up being too rambunctious for the dog walker, especially since he was walking 3-4 other dogs at the same time. So, if your dog has a lot of energy then a smaller pack would be preferable. Other than that, and your dog getting along with the others in the pack, you should be good.
nice, my pups do that all the time, they love the cold floor when we get back from walks
