Growing up we had tons of pets, I was always caring for some animal that I would bring home. Dogs were always my favorite, they are so much fun! I work part time, and will be out of the house for a few hours 3 days a week. The other days I am home but may run quick errands, nothing more than 3 hours at most. We have a fenced in yard, plenty of space for your fur baby to play. We also have two small dogs, one who loves to make friends and play. The other one would rather cuddle on the couch but doesn't mind friends and will play once in a while.
