    Dog will need to be aired in the garden, if you are gone at daytime the doors to outside can be left open. His outside space is fenced in, so if youre not home just let the doors be open and he helps himself, just make sure he has water and food. He loves people. He's not that used to other dogs and likes mostly to stay at home.

    Leo is a 3 Year old Staffy. Easy going. He will be stressed that we are gone the first days but this will pass. He makes noise/growling when playing, just the way he is, he is never agressive.

    Fish needs feeding once a day.

    Food in morning and in evening, dry food. Make sure he has water at all times.
