Hello all,
We're really keen on adopting a miniature dachshund puppy. We've read lots about their health, likes, dislikes, character etc. but one thing we are still unsure of is how much time they would be happy left alone? We both work full time, being out of the house from 7:30am - 6:15pm each day. Initially this wouldn't be the case as we wouldn't want our new puppy upset or distressed, but at what point can you start leaving them for longer during the day?
Please help! We would absolutely love to own one, but wouldn't want to do so if it would spend most of its life unhappy.
Thanks!
