    "There are a lot of dogs in the neighborhood. Mostly little dogs. There is a dog park not far from here. Very well kept and very clean. There are a lot of squirrels, birds and other critters in the neighborhood. This can be a challenge if your dog(s) have a high prey drive. Mine do and it’s a nightmare trying to keep the dogs from chasing the wildlife. I can also hear coyotes howling in the evening from time to time. Although my dogs are larger breeds, it is still a valid concern."
