Does anyone have a dog and work a 9-5?
I would love a dog but couldn't commit to getting home at lunch for a walk etc. Would a 'less energetic' dog such as a british bulldog be bothered by this, from what i have read they are lazy gits who get tired from over-exercise so would morning/evening walks daily suffice? Would get pampered by me and the mrs when we got home thats for sure, just weighing up whether its fair on the dog or not

We've been able to do it with dogs in their old age, who are content to sleep and don't notice being left so much.
We're in the same boat. Desperately love having dogs but can't take one on whilst we work all day
It does help a bit that I borrow my little Pikey Terrier at weekends and our cat thinks it's a dog!

True, thats why i was contemplating a british bulldog, given their reputation for being rather less energetic. Wouldn't contemplate a collie or jack russell type as they are always wanting to play non stop from past experience. Anyone on here own a british bulldog and can comment?
