I am a dog lover, photographer, and designer working out of my home office studio most days. My friendly and very submissive-type 25 lb terrier mix pup loves to meet and play with other dogs. She lives for it. However, if for any reason dogs are not getting along, we have enough separate areas of the house to prevent conflict, so they do not need to be around each other. We have a large fenced in backyard on a Richfield sized lot with plenty of room to run around. I have had dogs growing up, and now had our current pup for 2 years. Very experienced with animals. Being at home during the day makes it easier to attend to a puppy that needs more bathroom breaks.
