My partner (Madison) and I are SEQLD locals and live a quite active lifestyle, whether it be going for walks through bush/rainforest, or taking our dog (Kingston, German Shepherd) to the beach. We have both had pets our entire lives and had plenty of experience with all shapes and sizes.
We both work away from home approx 7am - 5pm. During this time your dog would spend the day in the back yard with Kingston (our German Shepherd). When we are not at work we there are many tracks and dog parks within walking distance from our house....
