I've grown up with pets and don't see myself ever without a dog again. I absolutely love dogs and so does my girlfriend. Our little Shih Tzu is good with other dogs too. I'm home full time because I'm a student, and if I'm not, my girlfriend is here for back-up. I'll take dogs out for walks regardless of the weather and I like to make friends with all dogs and I love to cuddle with dogs too, so there's cuddling on the couch. We are subscribed to the bark box company, so we have plenty of toys and treats. We have hardwood floors in our apartment so "accidents" are a quick clean-up and not bothersome. We love so spoil all dogs and ours is definitely spoiled.
