You wouldn't leave a baby at home for 5 -6 hours a day, you surely can't leave a puppy home for that amount of time.

Rather than a pet shop, go to the North Shore Animal League, or the ASPCA, or if you are in the city itself, the Center for Animal Care and Control (this used to be a kill shelter, I don't know if they still are, but you'd be saving a doggy life if you got one from there)

Consider getting an older dog, one that has been trained, and needs a good home.
