I understand how important it is to keep dogs clean and away form foxtails and burs, I will always check them before I drop them off or they get picked up. I have a year and some odd month old poodle and he LOVES to play and gets along with dogs of all ages. Going to the park and running after a ball or with dogs is one of his favorite pass times. If you dog is more of a couch potato that loves to cuddle that is great as well. I always sit on the floor with my dog and will toss him the ball when I am doing something. I am always up for a walk and love to try new dog friendly trials. All in all tell me what your dog needs and I can provide that no problem!
