Big dog, small dog
Here in the LeBlanc household, we have all different types, ages, sizes, and genders of dogs. Our family is very eclectic. We have taken in anything from a 3lb blind chihuahua to a 200lb Great Dane. There are multiple challenges to housing the amount and the different types of dogs. First water bowls. You have to have a large water bowl and a short water bowl. They are everywhere and you have to fill them up constantly. We have dog gates spread throughout the house, all tall some that fill up the entire doorway, again due to some dogs' ability to jump over them. Our fence has two different heights. The outside fence not only meets the ground, to prevent mischievous little ones from digging out around the entire perimeter, but is also tall enough to keep the big guys in. We have big dog beds; one is our personal king bed for our ol guy Budroe. Then we have smaller floor beds for the rest of the younger pups. Our crates range from 54 inches tall to 32 inches tall to 24 inches tall. There are many many obstacles to having different breeds and sizes.
