I've owned dogs my entire life. I've had dogs ranging in size from a 10 pound mutt to a 60 pound boxer. Owning a dog means I've gained experience over time, doing everything from walking and bathing them, to making sure they're fed, safe, and loved. I always keep dogs leashed with their tags on in case they some how get off their leash. I've helped in potty training young dogs as well. I also have experience with older dogs who need a little more care. I have a large tub for bathing animals and a large fenced backyard for potty and play time. I feel a dog is a part of the family and should be cared for as such. I would treat your pet as if they were one of my own!
