First off your dog must love other dogs and be socialized as we have two dogs of our own. There is Einstein, our super friendly and stubborn basset hound. There is also Cookie, our friendly and very smart poodle/bichon. My availability does fluctuate week to week as I do work another part-time job so I am not available on a day to day basis. A little about me: I am originally from Alaska, as are Einstein and Cookie, so we love the outdoors and the cold. We spent the past three years living in Germany and recently moved to the area. I've always loved dogs and had several growing up as well so they have always been a big part of my life. Also since we are new to the area it would be nice for Cookie and Einstein to make some new friends. ~Brett
