I have been a dog owner for about two years. I also foster dogs. I love each kind. I have two of my own. One is 8 months old and the other is two years old. Both playful but very kind dogs. While I work during the week-days, I can certainly take them overnight and either return them to their homes during the day or they can be kenneled in my home. (I do have exceptions for very well behaved dogs). I do use a reward based training style. I do not have a preference in breeds. I think they are all great. One thing to note is I have a smaller home so dogs that need a lot of space may not find my place ideal. I can certainly walk larger dogs if they are good walkers.
