...dogs whike I work 8h a day? I'm wondering if GSP's easily suffer from separation anxiety. I currectly have 4 dobes. I love scooter joring and sledding with my dogs, but I've only got one good dog left. 1 doesn't like running, 1 just had major surgery for a torn ligament in his knee and 1 is getting older with bad hips. I have 2 garages and a large house on 3 acres of fenced in land. Both of my garages have been turned into kennels for dogs which I take from my humane society and train them before giving them back to help them find homes. Would it be feasable to have a GSP in this type of environment if he runs for an hour daily during the week and for 3-4 hours on the weekend? Also, I often take vacations and sometimes work away from home for a few days at a time, in which case half of my dogs go to a kennel as they have separation anxiety and the other half are taken care of by my 65 year old mother.
Thank you for your advise on the matter!
