I work for a local nonprofit. I've been a dog owner my entire life with no gap. Always rescues. I'm usually available on holidays, unless I'm out of town/ camping. I work close to home and I have a very securely fenced yard for roaming/ potty breaks. My own dog is pretty much a quadrupedal child and a husky who needs a ton of exercise, so I take him out often for runs, walks, and dog park visits. The fact that he's a husky is also the reason I have a very secure yard. I'm the person at parties who sneaks off into the other room to hang out with the host's dogs. I'm the mom of a small male biped who also adores pups, so any dogs at my house would have to be good with good kids.
