I currently have one five-year-old dog in my home (Stella). She is a black lab rescued as a puppy. She is well loved by the whole family. I have had dogs my whole life. Most of my life my dogs were hunting dogs, but now indoor dogs is what I own. I enjoy walks and going to the dog park to see all of the dogs! My dog is like family - she is welcome on the furniture whenever she would like. We also have one older male cat (Oliver) in the home. He is very friendly to other cats and dogs alike. He would welcome any fur-friend for the night (or longer). I hope to meet your dog or kitty soon. Hope this helps. Have a great day!
