When selecting a pet, it is always important that you know some basics of which dogs can be left alone. This is because some dogs, while they may be good for the household as a whole, can become destructive when left alone for too long.
Also, some dogs do not seem to enjoy being alone and therefore do not necessarily need constant attention or exercise. In general most dogs want and require more attention and time to develop good social and well-being skills.
Some dogs will become nervous and fret if left unattended, and potentially even have violent behavior at home including chewing or breaking the furniture or toys! Although most dogs do not like to be left alone for long periods of time, it is not a good idea to leave your dog unattended for a prolonged period of time either.
