Responsible, active, pet owner

Pet care experience

We have had dogs our entire lives. We currently have two Golden Retrievers. We used to foster for an all breed rescue and then a Golden Retriever rescue having multiple dogs at a time. We have watched pets for friends and family and have experience from small to extra large breeds as well as having experience with giving meds and recovery from surgeries. We have trained our own dogs and have dealt with training our fosters and a wide range of issues. We love being active and outside and have plenty of land to play and run around. We live in a small, quiet country subdivision which is great for walks. We cannot take any pitbulls (American, American Staffordshire, Staffordshire Bull) or pitbull mixes. We would prefer dogs that can be off leash. Our kids are younger with multiple neighborhood kids frequenting our house as well which means the door gets opened quite a bit.
