Hey y’all, I am considering getting a dog and have two main questions:
More context: I live in an apartment and want to get a small to mid size dog at least 4 years old (don’t think I could take on a puppy). I would take on a foster dog. I like to go on walks during the week and I think this would help me do it more.
- What in my life I should I be prepared for in getting a dog? Compromises, difficulties, etc.?
- I am seeking a companion that I hope can help me regulate myself on my tougher days. I know a dog can’t fix me or anything, but I’d like to think a dog can help me orient to my life and find a sense a home and constancy. Is this a reasonable expectation?
