I’ve had a dog ever since my sister and I bought our first puppy with $10 in change from a neighbor. I was 6 yrs old. I’ve been a dog person ever since. I have flexible availability due to grown kids and my work schedule. I have plenty of energy to play with your dog and I’m strong enough to handle a larger breed. I have raised 4 teens as well... so I’m very patient! I have one rescue dog named Loki. He is very sweet and mellow and great with other dogs. He likes to have a playmate. I know your pet is a member of your family and I will treat him like one of mine. I would love to meet your dog and help you when you are busy.
