12 hours in a stretch locked inside a room will indeed b boring 4 any1…wat more a pup. Can try dese: 1. Switch on d radio or tv 2 keep her company. 2. If u r working nearby, try n fit in lunch time visits. 3. If she’s toilet trained, gv her more access 2 d house eg. lounge, kitchen, washing area. 4. Gv her plenty of exercise n walks in d mornings, evenings n nite. 5. Play n train with her ven u r around. 6. Involve her in ur activities whenever possible eg. dinner, supper, coffee, pasar malam 7. Take part in dog sports during d weekends eg. agility. 8. Get more toys…u’ll need more den just a few toys. Noisy toys, chew toys, bones, food flavoured toys, soft toys, roll around toys etc. Just make sure dey r safe. Can also leave some of ur old clothes lying around, so dat she feels safe n familiar. 9. Place her with a fren, neighbour, day care or boarding place during working hours. Though she’ll b in a cage most of d time, at least she hs company. Most importantly is 2 gv her enof play n exercise everyday. Den she’ll b more settled n not so restless when u r away. Think u hv 2 allocate at least 1-1½ hrs of ur time each day 4 dis. If u do dis with sufficient discipline, den more likely den not she’ll b tired during d day n will spend most of d time napping. Dogs do sleep a fair bit…so take advantage of dis. __________________________________________________
