| Apartment? I currently live in a one bedroom apartment that has a patio with my two yorkies. They like to lay outside in the sun. I also leave the door from the patio to the living room open (when I'm home) so that they can run inside and outside whenever they want. I also try to take them to the dog park everyday for at least an hour. I was just wondering how many of you live in apartments? If so, how often and how long do you bring them outside? |

| I live in an apartment, too! Mine also like to go out on our screened-in porch and look around and lay out in the sun. I take them on 2-3 walks a day. One in the morning right when I wake up, one right when I get home from work in the afternoons, and one in the evenings before bed. Hootie stays in her crate while I'm gone and Hobbs just stays in his bed on the couch...he gets to stay out now bc he is potty trained. But I leave them for 4 hours in the morning, I'm home for 1.5 hours for lunch, and then I leave them for 4 hours in the afternoons. I take them on walks bc I want to make sure they're getting enough exercise!!!!!!! They sleep the whole time I'm gone! |

| Last year i lived in an apartment with no garden whatsoever, i had to take my 3 babies(only had three at the time) out for like 12 walks a day, mainly so they could go to the toilet an also just to get some fresh air. It was hard not having a garden, glad i have one now as my babies love it outside |

| I live in an apt and Howie usually only goes out once or twice a day. He isn't crazy about the outside. His a$$ is too good for grass. Lol.
