Are we crazy or just blessed?

Goob
Just wondering what everybody does with their EB while they're at work. I just got out of school when we got Goob so I was able to spend my entire day with him; training him and loving on him. About a month later, I got a part time job and Goob stayed in his crate while I was gone. Now, my husband and I have our own house and Goob is 3 years old. My husband doesn't want me to work full time so I can take care of the house and of course...Mr. Goob. Some people look at us like were crazy because I stay home....with our dog (no human children).

My husband makes enough to run our household and I am still working part time. Crazy???

Is anyone else a stay at home mom of an EB?

For the first year, i took Billy with me everywhere and he slept in his crate at night. Now (he's almost 2), he would rather sleep the day away in his crate than jump in the car. I'm away a maximum 8 hours, but usually can swing by home for an hour or so for lunch.

There's isn't a ton of time where the dogs have to be home alone but they stay in their crates when we do leave. :)

You are definitely blessed, if you can do it, Why Not? You have the best of both worlds, who wouldn't want to stay at home and enjoy your baby, and snuggle time? And you can still get out and work part time, but because you want to, not because you have to. I say we're crazy for our bullies, and blessed to have them.

I'm home with our dogs, not that I can work anyway cos of permit issues but I think I'd probably not work full time even if I could... and that's ALL because of the bulldogs:tongue:

I think you are a very lucky person. I hope to be retired retired in the near future. Then I will be home with my bully kids except for an occassional round of golf.

I am jealous! Good for you! I think if people have the option to do it that is awesome! I absolutely would if I could. Patton's dad and I both have demanding jobs so Patton drives with me to work every day and I drop him off at doggy day care and pick him up when work is over and we drive home together. It breaks my bank just about lol but he LOVES day care so I can't take it away from him. On the weekends he sits at the inside garage door and cries because he's waiting for me to take him to my car and drive him to day care. Love my little monster!!!

I don't blame you and can certainly identify with it. If you can swing it financially and ya'll both agree, good for you that you can stay with you beloved dog
