I've had dogs my whole life. I've taught my most recent pup a ton of tricks. I'm available when I'm not working at my full-time job. Your dog won't feel anything less than love from me! And I believe he/she should get plenty of outdoor time. Never keep a dog locked up! I'll always follow whatever regimen/routine you have set up for your dog as best I can. My apartment allows pets and my roommates pets are kept out of the general vicinity so if you have a problem with other pet interaction it shouldn't be a problem but let me know! I'm super trustworthy & honest. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask. Rest assured your dog will be in great hands.
