I live in a 2 story townhouse with a balcony. My complex has a lot of places for your dog to do its business, and even provides bags to clean it up with. My first dog moved in 7 years ago, a little Cocker Spaniel. A year later, I got a Boxer puppy. Then a couple of years ago, a Great Dane/black Lab. Now, I only have a 3 year old boxer who loves everyone he meets. I live minutes from 2 dog parks and have the Clarkson creek outside my door to go on walks on. Your dog can relax on my furniture, chill with my boy, get his exercise and have a great night. I love the company of dogs and will give yours as much love and attention as mine receives.
