I AM AN AVID ANIMAL LOVER . I have a 7 year old Yellow Lab. Living in the Redwoods, she gets along very well with, and is intrigued with all other animals. I took an early retirement and have lots of extra time to love your pet. I have a large house and live in a gated area. I have a fenced in kennel and l love to walk in our park. I was raised by a country vet and dog groomer. Your pet will be spoiled and loved! Dogs are important to me and my husband. He’s also retired now and it's a team effort. Let me know what your dogs needs are and we will pamper as close as possible to their home life. We were gone for 2 1/2 years for my husband to finish his job. But now we love being home.
