advise needed- want to get a golden retriver; i'm a bachelor
What should i be aware of when getting a pet? What kind of cost should i budget in? Also i've wfo, that means the pet will be alone for 6-7 hours a day. I live in blr, society is nice, so it'll have lots of space for dog to play, once i take them outside for a walk.
This is for a dog/puppy:
If you are living alone, Don't get a pet. As you'll be in the office for 6-7hrs. Because you will get a puppy first, and they'll not know how to live alone for such long hours. It affects their behaviour a lot.
We need to train them living alone, like in the beginning for just a few minutes,then a few hours and so on. .
And if you are adopting an already grown up dog, you'd first need to understand their behaviour before leaving them alone for long hours.
That's my advice

Try fostering first. Since you are alone, go for an older dog that’s already housebroken - and adopt don’t shop! We have very cute indies that are no less than breed dogs

Might want to get a cat instead. You can leave them for longer hours. dogs get very lonely and might start destroying your stuff out of frustration.
