I have a fenced in yard with plenty of room for play time and potty breaks. I have three sons ages 2, 6, and 7 who absolutely love dogs who would also love to provide extra playtime and affection. We are a very physically active family so we do love taking dogs on plenty of walks, visiting parks, and playing outside in our backyard. If you are comfortable with your dog traveling with us we also enjoy bringing dogs with us on quick trips to local hardware stores, soccer games, and TBall games. During our meal times we do not allow dogs in our dining area. If a dog that is staying with us is already trained this way at home as well, we usually just ask them to lay down and stay in the living room at that time. However if they are not use to this we usually will just allow them to play in our backyard until we are done eating. We don’t feed people food to pets at all unless instructed by a owner. We also do not allow pets to be on any furniture. If your dog is use to being on furniture at home and jumps up from time to time it’s ok, we will just use the command “down” to ask them to get off. I do own a large dog crate that is available to be used during boarding if your dog is crate trained.
