I am home almost all of the time with my two girls. We have a Boston Terrier who loves to run and play with other dogs. They can be let in and out as they please in our fenced backyard. When we are able to we try to go on walks about once a day. Rocko (our dog) is 9 years old and about 20 lb. But he is very friendly and gets along with most other dogs! We do not let dog sleep in our bed but if you provide their bed they may sleep there or on our couches or wherever they pleased throughout our house. I can feed them on whatever schedule you typically do. I am very flexible on schedule and in our home!
