How much of my time does a dog need?

A dog would like all of your time. They are social animals and they would like to be with you all the time. Of course that's not real life. If you can get up and run the dog, walk the dog, take it hiking, do something in the morning, then the good news is they do sleep all afternoon. You get a break. You get to go to work and you get to have a life. In the evening, again, you need to walk the dog or something else. You do have to put a fair amount of time in there and ideally you should give the dog a lot of love at night.
