I rescued a german shepherd mix (who lived a very happy 13 years), I spent 3 hours on an average day walking her (4:30 am, 3:30 pm & 9:00 pm - rain, snow, sleet or shine) to ensure she got outside, exercised & enjoyed her life. My sister is an Agility dog trainer, with a very high credentials. She has owned and trained well over 30 dogs who I have spent many hours with, traveling with, playing with and caring for. I grew up with dogs, always having a "pound puppy" as our family pet. Unfortunately my lifestyle and schedule does not work for giving a dog a balanced & happy life, so I’m excited to meet & spend time with other dogs.
