I'm a 31 year old single mom of a beautiful 8 year old daughter. I grew up my whole life with a variety of pets. We had cats, dogs, guinea pigs, a rabbit, and fish...not all at once of course!, but as I was growing up. I currently live with my father to help him with the house and his 2 dogs. He has an 8 year old female chocolate lab and a 6 year old female American Staffordshire Terrier. Both of the girls are fixed and great around people, kids, and other dogs and cats. They are typically on the main floor or in the basement with my dad. I have an entire separate upper floor where I usually am. We also have an acre of land with 2 separate fenced in areas. If your pup(s) need to be separate from his girls that won't be a problem!
