Hi,
I've been looking for some weeks, doing LOTS of reading on various different breeds of pooch and now i thought i'd ask you guys.
I would like a small/medium sized dog. They will be alone for 8 hours a day, 4 times a week. I will walk them mornings and at least once in the evening on those 4 days and they will get much longer, more energetic walks the other 3 days of the week. I have a small garden, no children but that might change over the course of a dogs life and a medium sized home.
I've looked at different hounds including Brittanys and Beagles, mainly because myself and my girlfriend like how hounds look, but have been put off with leaving them alone for so long and not being able to walk them off lead respectively. Golden retrievers keep getting mentioned everywhere i look but my partner says she thinks they are too big.
Can anyone reccomend any breeds? I dont mind cross or pure and i'm based in England.
Thanks!
Steve
