A question about the American Eskimo?

The Toy is the smallest of the three Eskie sizes. This dog will fit into the size of an apartment okay, but they are known to bark a lot. The Eskie is a wonderful watchdog and it alerts, barks, at noises and activity. If you plan on leaving one dog alone for eight or nine hours every day then there may be problems. Do you have a doggy daycare in town? Is there a dog walker? It's difficult for any breed of dog to be alone for so long.
