I have worked with dogs in some capacity for well over 15 years. Our home is perfect for dogs; lots of comfy places to hang out inside, a large grassy yard to play and chase squirrels outside. We also keep several wading pools for the dogs on those really hot days. Rather than having lots of dogs, we try to keep a fairly small pack, around 5 dogs that are socialized and can get along well. Then the dogs feel comfortable with in a relaxed pack -- even better than being at home! I have a four year old high energy pup who is well socialized, loves to play and would love other dogs to play with. Mature, senior dogs are also welcome, we can easily accommodate their slower, quite pace and keep them independent and safe from the high energy pups as needed. If you work from home or just need some quiet time or a day to run errands; drop your dog off so they won't be alone, they will have fun in a safe and dog friendly home environment. For extra safety: --all entries to home and backyard are double gated so the dogs cannot accidentally "escape" --doggy first aid kit readily available -- veterinarian 5 mins from our front door Our home is setup to keep your dog safe and secure!!
