It’s unclear if my dog or myself is more excited about playing with other dogs. We love being outside and a dog only makes it better. My puppy is 6 months old and loves to socialize with other dogs (As do I!) Dogs spend most of their days inside when a couple is busy or when they work and i believe they should have the opportunity to get some energy out as often as possible. As a parent to a new puppy i definitely understand the importance of wearing a dog out during the day. I live in a townhouse next to a large park so we are outside at the park most of the time since our backyard is small. Can’t wait to meet your dog!
