I grew up with pets and have always had a dog/cat in my home up until recently (RIP Wesker). I've also pet-sit for numerous different types of puppers of all ages and sizes, ranging from older Pugs to Retriever puppies, and it's always a blast. I live in a 1000 square foot condo by myself so there is plenty of room to roam around. I am also on the ground floor (no stairs!) with immediate access to grass and sunlight for potty breaks. I generally like to stay home all weekend so I would be around all the time! Need lots of exercise? I live next to a giant park and am up for long runs or fetch . Couch dog? No problem. They are also welcome to jump on the couch or bed at any time. I sure hope your dog loves to play fetch!
