Life isn't fair!

Zoom, on one hand I'm saying get the cutie. On the other hand which is the logical one right now, I'm saying think smartly about this. You say you work 60 hours, live on the 7th floor in a small apartment, your boyfriend is not one to do the training necessary as you wood, and then people say to keep the pup in your car. You do live in Denver with harsh winters. How do people think the pup is going to stay warm in a car in freezing temps?
It's up to you, but look into your heart and also your mind and think this through carefully.

I'm going to agree with Barb on this one. Of course I want to see you with this adorableness flufferball. But.... Definitely weigh the pros and cons and make sure that whatever decision you make is fair to both you, your boyfriend and new pup. I don't know how comfortable I would be leaving my dog in the car when I'm at work. But that's just me. Is there anyway to keep a crate somewhere at work for the pup so you can do potty breaks and stuff? A new puppy is going to disrupt your life a lot... Not necessarily in a bad way, but make sure that's a disruption you are ready for right now. I'm not saying don't get the pup. But.... Definitely weigh the pros and cons before making any decision. But if you do get the pup I demand LOTS of pics.
HE SAID OK!!!!!
So on the days where it's super cold/hot, then obviously Puppy is going to be staying home...although he is going to have a TON of coat. I think with the car in the sun and some fleece blankets and Sawyer with him, he'd be ok?
I know it'll be a huge adjustment--I've applied for a job with less crazy hours, so if I get that it'll help a lot but otherwise...I'll figure it out. Somehow.
Also, he's currently named Felix. Momma is named Cat and Daddy is Dozer (aka DOH!zer)...ideas?

Yay!!!!
My girls spend an insane amount of time in the car and it gets quite cold during the winter here. They have little coat, so I pile up a ton of super warm blankets in their crates, put easy to rip off coats on them (in case they get caught), park in the sun and check on them often. They do fine!
Fox, his name should be Fox.
