Ken and I grew up in loving homes with dogs and have had dogs all our married life. When I was growing up we raised German Shorthair Pointers. Ken and I raised Shih Tzu's but had many other dogs along the way. We are retired and have lots of time for cuddles and kisses. Our backyard is enclosed with a brick wall for safe play and excerise. We have artificial grass so dogs who are allergic to grass will be safe. We have a great area to take dogs on a long or short walk. We would love to welcome your special baby to join our family while you are out of town. They will have our love and attention and we will make sure they feel comfortable just as if they were home. Toby and Chancy look forward to meeting their special guest!
