Information Carissa M. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog has any medical issues, special needs, or unique behaviors ahead of time as well as any food or treat sensitivities. If you are bringing your pet to my house: 1. Please provide proof of current vaccinations (we want everyone to stay safe and healthy!) 2. Please let me know if your dog has any special needs or unique behaviors ahead of time as well as any food or treat sensitivities. 3. Let me know if they have any separation issues or anxiety - unfortunately I am not able to accept dogs with severe separation anxiety at this time. 4. If they have any quirks or known aggression issues such as food or resource guarding. 5. Please provide feeding routines and habits

A typical day

Buxton loves to make new friends and play! If your pup loves to play then Buxton will keep them very busy! However, he is also very mindful - so if your pup is not interested then he will leave them alone. We have plenty of toys that are available to play with ranging from balls, squeaky toys, ropes, to stuffies! We have a nice backyard for the dogs to run around and chase each other or chase the squirrels that can frequently be found running along the fenceline, in the trees, or across the electric lines. I also have a large window in the living room perfect for squirrel watching and mailman viewing. If the weather is nice I like to take a walk with your pup around the neighborhood to explore new sights, sounds, and smells.
