NWR:Getting a new puppy today

Original post by mskittynj

OK, this was NOT my idea, FH is a dog person, has had dogs all his life. We had one when we lived in NY but had to give him up when we moved to PA due to our work schedules. Now that I finished my Masters and have a little more free time he decides to get a dog. I am not thrilled with this, as I am happy w/out extra responsibilities....
He's coming home with him today. A male bullmastiff 8 weeks old.......I know I'm going to LOVE this dog but I am really dreading it backfiring somehow......
Had to share ladies....thanks for listening! Will post pics when he gets home.
XOXOXOXO

OMG!!! What a face!!!! He is adorable!!

But I do understand your anxiety. Getting a new puppy can be a lot like having a new baby. I remember when I first got Daisy (my Bischon) the first couple of weeks were brutal! She would stay up all night crying! And then with work I couldn't be with her during the day. Luckily, I still live home and my mom and grandma really took care of her during the day.

But in your case, I think the dog will get used to being on it's own during the day if that's how you start him out. I know (from friends and family) the the woman ends up with most of the responsibility, but they are just so lovable, that after a while, you tend to foget about the work. In the end, it is all worth it. Especially when they snuggle up next to you on the couch after a long hard day at work and look at you like there is no body better!!!

Good Luck and Congrats!!
