I am home all day and/or night and will give lots of love and attention to your dog. From owning dogs all my life I know each dog has a unique personality/needs and learned to love them all. Your dog will have plenty of room to explore (or retreat) at our house and a medium sized back yard. My pup misty loves to kiss and play with other dogs. She grew up socializing at a dog park and around extended family pets. She is a year and a half old redbone coonhound/black lab mix weighing 48 pounds. She is gentle, spayed, and a bit of a rascal at times (but also my pride and joy). I am happy to answer any questions you may have and will send pictures whenever you like when I have your fur-baby. We look forward to meeting you!
