We have a doggy friendly home (and a cat that tolerates them). I've owned animals my entire life of a variety of species but dogs have always had my heart. Growing up I event to State Fair with obedience training. I have experience with dogs of many breeds from small to large, though mid size seems to work best in our home. My resident pups are an eight year old black lab female and a five year old golden retriever. They are both very friendly and playful dogs. I let the dogs roam free in a gated area of the house and let them outside often. I work from home so my schedule allows some extra play time. We typically do not crate our dogs but have one available to be in a shared or separate space if needed.
