I grew up with a dog since I was 6 years old. The family dog was a minature schnauzer. He lived with me from when i was 6 through my high school years. I want to get a dog of my own soon and figured this would be a great preview of what having a dog in Chicago would be like. I live near the north entrance of the lincoln park zoo so there's a lot of grassy area and great places to take dogs for walks and to play outside. Responsible guy with no roommates and I keep my place very clean so your dog won't get into anything! Let me know if you have any other questions and I'll be happy to answer.
