My children are older not around much. I have always had a dog that I would rescue. Just had to put down my love whitey he was a border patrol dog served 8 years. We gave him an excellent retirement home and plan on continue with this process He had his own retirement card so that is very helpful. These dogs have served our country and they deserve a loving family. I believe dogs are very therapeutic for me I promise to take the very very good care of your children ( dogs) willing to walk take hikes or doctors appointments basically they are like taking care of children and deserve the respect and love. I have never had a disagreement with a dog and I don’t plan to.
