I've had dogs all my life and currently live with my Brittany Spaniel, Bonnie. I love to take long walks and know that a tired dog is a happy dog. I work from home and spend time with my dog throughout the day. She is happiest when she has a lot of mental and physical stimulation. We go on various walks during the day and always have plenty of outdoor time in the yard. Our afternoon walk is typically about 3 miles. Some of our favorite spots to walk are through Mount Vernon and Bolton Hill. I have a fully fenced backyard for dogs to run around. I also like to head to a big nearby park that is great for walks. When the weather does not cooperate, my carpeted basement converts into a dog play area.
