Disagree, different if the dog has another dog for company but long days penned up alone not good for any dog.

Was thinking that myself actually
I know a lot of mad farmers!
OP has specified that husband will be home at lunch time to dog, so if that's true then dog will be on it's own for four-five hour periods - I don't think that's unacceptable.
bit further west than that but no less mad.You must be from Longford so!
There has been a recent thread where someone suggested restraining a dog in a garden on a spike and chain! I honestly dont know where ignorance ends and cruelty begins.
Perhaps two little dogs, perhaps terriers (fantastic personality) might suit. Will see what they say.
We do this with one of our dogs as he cant be trusted, once the tether is long enough and he cant wrap himself around anything its no harm.
Hi, I know, we always had terriers/jack russells at our home house, I love them, they are great craic especially the mungrels, just my husband wants a beagle but I think I will bounce it on the head, terriers seem more robust to me anyway. I was going to go for an older dog anyway, around 1 if possible, as pups sell quick anyway, plus with the new house, the kennel will have them potty trained already. Will probably, if allowed, get a brother & sister or something like that, that are used to each other, get on.
So, because we work all day (my husband will go home at lunch), you state we can't own a dog even though it will get loads of love off us in the evenings and weekends.
I doubt vey much that if you and your husband are working all day that your dogs will be the main priority in the evenings.
I just don't get people that lock their dogs in gardens all day long. Exactly what do they get out of it??
