I love dogs. I have owned a pitbull/shiba mix and a boston terrier. My boston terrier currently lives with me. He is a very friendly dog and weighs about 25 pounds. I also have 1 cat who has had his front claws removed. My cat does get along with my dog very well too, they love playing together. I only go to school on Monday and Wednesday but I am done by 12 pm. I work Sunday-Thursday but I only work from about 6 pm to 8 pm. I treat dogs as humans and allow them on the furniture and feed them well, as well as potty breaks and exercise. I will stick to whatever plan you want and treat your dog as one of mine own.
