When I was a kid I begged my parents for a dog, and finally they gave in and we had a springer for her entire life and most of my childhood. When I left for college I got an amazing little Chihuahua who I had for ten years before he past away. Before he passed I got a great dane puppy and have since then added another great dane rescue to my pack! I love spending time with dogs they are so loving and I have read they see us as family and I certainly see them as my family, for better or worse. I have watched my friends dogs many times and I am looking forward to caring for your family just as I would my own!!
