Alan and Lynne went above and beyond to make Charlie comfortable during his stay. They treated him like a member of their own family. Very much appreciated.🤗

Alan is Retired Army and Lynn stays home to homeschool our youngest son and care for your Fur Buddy!! We do kennel the dogs when we eat, when they eat and while they sleep for their safety. We do also need them to be comfortable in a Kennel for a few hours if we happen to need to run errands or attend a sporting even for our children. We do allow pets to free roam as much as possible.

Pets

A typical day

Snuggling. Playing fetch and tug a War. Puppy pool time. Puppy Play time and or just lounging. We do need to kennel your pup from time to time for their safety. We do this when they eat, when we eat and at night for bed to ensure their safety and security. They do Free roam as much as possible during the day. We are home full time. Other then a meet and greet, lunch break or errands..your dog will be allowed to free roam. We have a dog door as well. They either learn to use it by watching eachother, or we let them out as requested. (Most dogs seem to know they need to sit and the back door and wait to exit as many pups head out the dog door) They are free to gonin and out as they pleae. Sometimes they have too much fun and need an encouraged break to rehydrate and relax!! We feed the dogs twice a day. At about 730am and again at about 5pm. They are all fed in separate kennels to ensure no food aggression and to monitor if a dog is or is not eating and to ensure dogs are eating their own food. (We know a change in environment is stressful..we like to keep them on their normal diet as much as possible.)
