I have a 1 year old female Golden Doodle named MJ. She is very sweet and listens really well. I work in office Mon-Wed and my wife is a nurse and has a changing schedule, so roughly once a week we have to leave her home alone while we are both at work. She gets anxious if she's alone in the house, so we have to put her in her crate when we're not home. She likes her crate, but we hate leaving her in there for 8+ hours and want someone to come take her out and maybe play fetch for a little bit part way through the day.
