My wife and I love dogs and have always had at least one in the home. Our children will claim that we loved the dogs more than them. We encouraged our children when they were in 4H with their dog projects. The dogs that come into our home will be loved and treated as our own. We will love on them, play with them and make sure that their special needs are met. I am retired and do not work outside of the home. The home consist of myself, my wife, and Chauncy our friendly pet child. He is looking forward to making new friends. Someone is home most of the time. We would like to take care of your pet to make your vacation worry free. You will be able to relax knowing that your pet is being well cared for and loved. We feel that having a dog in the home is important for a healthy and happy life.
