Bryan - we live out in the country about 45 minutes northeast of downtown Austin, and we don't spend much time in the city. I made the grinding commute to work in Austin for 35 years...thanks to covid I now work from home 95% of the time.

The other issue for us is that from 2008-2020 we had a female border collie-mix rescue that was not good with other dogs, so we did not go many places with her. We are "testing" our current Texas Heeler for situations with other dogs...the jury is still out. Our Aussie is a real sweet teddy bear and he is no problem with other dogs.
