<human>: Can you condense the text into three sentences or less?

I'm sure there are already posts like this, but I searched and didn't come up with anything, so here goes.

I work 11 hour shifts, four days a week. This was never a problem for my dog before we moved because there was another dog to keep her company. Now that we're on our own, though, she barks a lot through out the day and has busted out of her crate a few times. I've only had her for a couple months, and since she was handed over to me (which was pretty much the minute she stopped barking at me), I've been pretty much the only person she trusts. She likes my sister though, so shes just just closed off.

Anyway, The landlords who live upstairs are retired, so they're home a good amount of the time. They're very understanding of our situation (thank goodness) but I still feel bad about it.

To help her feel more comfortable, I've moved her crate into my bed room, with my dirty clothes scattered around (for her, obviously ;) and I jsut got her a big cow femur to work on. The landlords and I have planned to have a meet and greet with her in "her" territory in hopes that they might be able to take her for walks or just be able to go down there in the case of an emergency.

(
