I havent read all the replies to this thread so it may have been said before. I dont think wether or not you work is relevant to how good a dogman you are. Its about your dedication and making time for your animals. I work full time and when the season comes i will be lamping full time aswell. I dont stop from when i get home from work until 10 or 11 o clock exercising, feeding and grooming my 3 dogs and sorting the horse. I dont find it a chore to be out conditioning and working my dogs it whats i love doing. It dosen't take all day to sort a dog out so it easily done after work. You may have
