Large fenced in yard. Someone is home at all times. we do have a dog of our own he lives other dogs. We take long walks with our dog so your dog will not only be able to play outside but also enjoy walking the neighborhood. I do have a 6 year old child so if your dog does not like children this will not be a good fit here. I am open to any breed as I do have a pinball. A very sweet boy. We can introduce our dogs to make sure it will be a good fit otherwise I will have to crate my dog which I don't believe in doing. We believe our dog is family and that's how we treat him.
