I have had dogs over the years and am known amongst my friends as a 'dog whisperer' as I am able to manage their behaviour using behavioural strategies.. SO the dogs are happy and sweet. I used to run my own dog walking business (before it was a thing, so maybe I began the popular trend :) ) . We have a huge backyard that's like a park where the ball gets thrown a long way. We also have a keen teen ball thrower. I am a very active dog walker and they will likely get 2 walks a day. Depending on the dog they will possibly come to work with me in my Studio where they will meet other people too, meaning they are less likely to be alone. (We do have birds in a cage that are outside in the day and inside at night, but they are well protected from dogs.)...
