If you want to get a dog, you should think three times beforehand.
Dogs need a lot of exercise and attention.
You can find out what working people should consider here.
In times of Corona and home office, many dogs have found a new home.
The interest in being a dog owner is greater than ever.
One can only hope that there will be no rude awakening for masters, mistresses and dogs themselves when the pandemic is over.
Because full-time jobs with compulsory presence in the office and dog care usually do not go well together
.
However, if you can bring your dog to the office, you have a clear advantage.
The prerequisite for this is that the dog is uncomplicated and well trained.
Every dog has a different character - is playful and curious or rather fearful and skeptical of people.
Dogs are shaped on the one hand by their upbringing and the experiences
they
have gathered so far,
but the dog breed also has an immense influence on the being
.
Hunting or herding dogs need a lot more exercise than a Leonberger, for example, which is one of the "lazier" dog breeds.
Before you get a dog from the shelter or from the breeder, you should carefully consider which dog best suits your lifestyle.
If you like to go hiking in the mountains and do a lot of other sports, you should opt for a more sporty dog.
The housing situation also plays a role: House and garden owners have the advantage that they can keep the dog outside - the dog can also be correspondingly large.

Not every dog can cope with a few hours without activity.

Dog breeds for working people: Which four-legged friends can sometimes be alone
As with humans, there are also the super sociable dogs and the rather lonely wolves who enjoy being alone.
The former breeds are more likely not to be suitable if you have to invest a lot of time in work.
Dog breeds that like to sleep a lot and do not need to be outside all the time are therefore most suitable for working people.
These include:
French bulldogs
: Like any dog, French bulldogs also need exercise - but not nearly as much as a dachshund or other hunting dog.
In addition, this dog breed is one of the more cozy and sleepy - perfect for professionals who can take their dog to the office.
Golden & Labrador Retriever
: Their adaptability makes this dog breed the ideal family dog.
But the four-legged friends are also suitable for working people because they can cope better with being alone than other breeds - we're talking about a few hours here.
The less a dog is alone, the better.
There is no breed of dog that should be left alone for long periods of time.
To dogs, the company of their master or mistress or a conspecific is too important.
Very sensitive dogs can
even develop depression
if left alone too often and for too long.
