I have owned 3 dogs in my life, the first one was 11 when I got her. Not long after she sadly passed, I got another dog at 8 weeks old and she was a handful. It took awhile to potty train her but now she never goes in the house. (she is with my parents now) Lastly I just got a dog from the shelter not too long ago. He’s deaf but he’s super smart and sweet. I have only had him 4 months so far and we’ve gotten over seperation anxiety, learned how to walk properly, knows basics like sit, stay, down, up, and a lot more. He lives with me right now and we love going on long walks. I live in a small apartment and he’s a hyper dog but we always find ways to drain his energy and play.
