I love all dogs/breeds and my active 3 year old Aussie just wants to play and have a buddy to hang out with. Sydney and I walk, bike or play frisbee several times/day and there are walking paths and parks within a few houses from our fenced yard. Wednesdays are my virtual meeting days (may add additional) so it would be good to start off by walking and then can add on (possible day care). When the hubby and I retire, our goal is to purchase some large acreage where we can rescue pets and have horses and alpacas! My neighbors all comment on how well trained Sydney behaves (we typically walk with no leash), We do belong to the Fox Valley Dog Training Club and continue to go to classes as dogs AND their humans can always learn something and can continue to learn! Now that Sydney's calmed down a bit, looking forward to taking her to agility training and possibly competing!
