Hello! Thank you for taking the time to review our page, we are a family of 4 with two young kids ages 4 and almost 7. We love dogs and both my husband and I grew up with them our entire life. We currently have a 1 year old black lab. He is very playful and very gentle. He loves to play with other dogs and will run around all day with other dogs if we let him! We have a fairly large fenced in backyard for dogs to play. We also love hiking and going to local parks where we can throw the ball and let them burn energy. Plenty of exercise will not be a problem. I can provide pics and updated status about your pets to help you feel comfortable when leaving you pup with us. I'm also always available to chat by phone to provide constant contact.
