Sounds like a really good idea to me too. What breed of dog(s) are you looking at? If it is a mature dog rather than a puppy and not a high-energy breed, it can probably work with your schedule. If you have the money, you can get dog walkers as a back-up. But the more important consideration is that you have a lot of love to offer. The bonds we can make with our pets are incredibly powerful, and healing. Plus you'll feel good giving a rescue dog a good home. All very positive, sounds like a great opportunity!
