Sorry, I know this is asked a lot but I feel like my case is a little different.
I love dogs and always planned on waiting until 4th year or later to adopt, but I'm currently fostering and of course, fell in love with my foster dog. He's around 2-3 years old, house trained, extremely laid back, spends most of the time sleeping and is completely tired with 20 minute walks or playtime. I'm currently in a post-bac which is mostly online, so I have plenty of time right now. My current roommate is a friend/grad student who loves him and takes him on walks for fun, but I'm not sure what her future plans are. I'm also not sure how long covid will last; if social distancing and online classes are the new norm it is completely different than being gone all day. I've seen some predictions that we'll be managing this through 2022, but who knows.
Any thoughts? Has anyone successfully had a dog and felt like it was okay being alone during the day?
