Hi! I'm Andrea, a music teacher, hiker, and animal lover. I have lived with dogs in my family all my life, sharing a home (and usually also a bed). I just moved to Seattle from New York, to my new teaching job in Edmonds. Unfortunately, my building doesn't allow dogs, and I wanted to get established before adopting any new friends. However, I am looking to fill some evening (after school) and weekend time loving, running with, playing with, and spending time with some amazing dogs! I grew up on a farm in Ohio, so I love to run and play in the park, sometimes get dirty, and don't have trouble becoming friends with new animals. I have raised Miniature Dachshunds, Weimaraners, and medium-sized, loving mutts, whom were rescued. I also have spent years of time with friends' Labs, Retrievers, Pitties, Shepherds, Border Collies, Beagles, Danes, Great Pyrenees, Terriers, and Chihuahuas. I am allergic to cats, although I love them too, so I can't spend too much time in your home if you also share a space with a feline. Can't wait to meet you!
