Yea that's why I was thinking about getting another one to keep my other dog company. He loves my parents dogs so I want to get him a buddy My dog right now is 1 but if I get another one I'll get one that's older and more out of the "puppy" stage

Did you buy separate crates for your dogs or do you put them in a bathroom or closed off area while you're at work? I tried adopting a dog through a rescue league last time I was looking but I was denied for not having a yard and living in an apartment so I'll look into animal shelters next time.
