All of our dogs havelived in our house from the moment we got them. Of couse we crate train them as pups, until their house broken. We've had a few instances of chewing and a few accidents, but that's what carpet shampooers are made for.  |
When we are all out, Steeler stays in the house with his 2 cats. We rescued him 8 months ago when he was a bit shy of 2. We ran out the night we picked him up and bought a big crate because we did not know if he was housebroken (he lived in a barn with 32 other dogs at the rescue). He slept in the crate for 1 night, never to use it again.
We live on 6 1/2 acres in NH so when we are home he usually hangs around outside. We do not have a fence but he does not wander off our property, he knows the boundary and will not cross it.
