We have two 3-year-old Australian Shepherds named Tyrion and Bronn. It takes this duo some time to warm up to you but once you gain their trust the loves attention. Literally the limit on pets does not exist for them. They can be energetic but they tend listen well and are crate trained. We also have a large fenced in yard for them to roam and play. We also have a 2-year-old cat named Pixel. She is not a fan of strangers to start but quickly warms up with the promise of pets. She tends to follow her mom around the house or sleeps.
