Will handle mistakes Pembroke makes like this:	We are very loving pet owners. If the dog goes potty on the floor we clean it up and immediately take the dog out. We don’t yell at our dogs but show them the correct spot to potty. Our others dogs are trained to stop barking by just showing them a squirt bottle. That is about as “mean” as we are and this rarely happens. Our dogs are also put in crates to eat so they get the correct amount of food and they also go in crates when we have visitors which is also very rare.
Discipline:	Just correct the behavior. Potty accidents are no big deal, just take the dog out immediately to show them where to go. If a barking issues arises we show a squirt bottle to them. If my beagle is getting too rough playing with my Shih Tzu, all I have to do is clear my throat with the “aathem” noise.
Where would Pembroke spend the majority of the time:	In our home with us. Snuggled on the couch and bed.

House dog or outside dog?	House dog
People at home during the day?	I work 4 days a week. On days when my husband or I will be gone longer than 4 hours he comes home to do potty breaks. With our work schedules the dogs are never alone more than 5 hours.
Where would dog eat?	In a crate. We separate our dogs for breakfast and dinner time because we feed them according to their diet needs. This is the only time they are crated unless we have too much company over.
Where would dog sleep:	Free range. Our dogs have dog beds and their own sofa. They are also welcome in bed with me if they want. We have doggy steps leading up to the big human bed.
Play & exercise:	Outside walks a few times a day. Always 1/2 hour of me or hubby playing with toys with them, we have a big long open floor plan for games of fetch! Our other dogs get the “zoomies” too, plenty of house to do zoomies!
