Hello, I am a doodle mom of a 3yr old sheepadoodle. Before we had him, we had a cocker spaniel that we had from 8 weeks until we had to put him down at 14yrs old. I have also occasionally watched my neighbor's dog for the last 3 years. We live in a house with a fenced yard and play pool for those that like water. We have pavers and artificail turf, so your dog won't go home with dirty paws! Our Rocco loves all dogs and will definitely keep your dog entertained! His favorite games are fetch and tug. He can't wait to me you! We do live on a golf course. Please let me know if your dog is a barker.
