We have a completely fenced-in backyard. Our dogs do great in the backyard, but we also recognize some dogs can't control their excitement and will want to dig, jump, etc, so we are happy to do multiple walks a day and/or head to the dog park to help with that energy. We don't crate our dogs, but we can of course accommodate a crate if needed. Our dogs are allowed furniture and bed because we love them like they are our actual human children, but we promise not to teach your dogs this habit if you don't approve. Our feeding schedule for our dogs is twice a day with some treats throughout, though we will of course stick to whatever regiment you do for your pups. We do have a few steps in our house, and we have a hip sling if needed if your pup is a senior or needs assistance.
