House is about 2500 square feet
Fenced yard for dogs is about 6000 square feet
(Total is about 5.5 acres)
Just one GSD right now, but looking for another one or two to replace two old GSD's that died in the past few months.
House is a 2500sq ft 2 story, plus a finished basement adding another 1000sq ft or so.
Yard is 10 acres. About 1/8 acre is fenced as the dog turn out/potty/play yard. The dogs have access to the rest of the property when we're out with them to supervise, except for the 4 acres or so that is fenced off for our horses (and the dogs have to stay out).
Fence is U shaped set back 15 feet into a 6000 sq ft lot, less 1000 feet for the foundation size so I figure it's about 3500sf. Then less the garden and the swingset it's close to 2500sf.
When Luther was still with us, it was fine for 2 GSDs with a little creative fencing behind the garden. Morgan in her secret lair
House is about 1300 sqf. Our lot is about 1/4 acre so the yard is not that big. We have 2 GSD's...
We have a couple of baseballfields close by where I can take the dogs for a good run.
House is 8,600 square feet. Fenced backyard is 2 acres. Total lot size 4 1/2 acres.
... just Cooper and Ava. No other furr children. (unless you count the Golden Retriever that lives at the begining of the neighborhood and breaks out of his invisible fence to come visit me on a daily basis
Our house is about 1700 sq ft.
We have probably about 1/3 acre that is actually cleared for yard, etc.
We have Rocky. Someday would like to have two but life doesn't allow for that right now.
House 1800 sq ft with basement plus attached garage that is 840 sq ft where they hang out in crates till they dry if its raining or snowing out. We live on 17 acres, have a 100 by 26 fenced play area but the GSDs don't hang out there much, most of the time I just go out with them. We live about 1/8 mile + back from the road. We have lots of exercise room. We have 2 GSDs in the house and 3 senior lg breed dogs that live in an outside heated kennel.
The dogs love it and so do I.
Just wondering. Seems a bit over the top. I have never brushed a dogs teeth. If they are ever anesthetized for any reason I would have their teeth scaled if needed. There are also cleaning chews.
Just curious. Currently my dogs are in their crates from 7AM to 12PM, then from 1PM to 3PM. But we are going to have to switch and leave them for 9hours straight. So just curious of how long other people leave their dogs.
