I am from Texas and have 5 dogs back home! I would love the company and getting to know other dogs and dog lovers ! It is just my husband and I with a smaller fenced yard so your dog would be inside basically the entire time . We like to go for walks at the park near by or even take a drive to the beach . Your dog will feel like they never left home with all the love id show them. My husband is an animal lover too and will also help me sit when he is not working . We have no pets as of right now so your dog would have our undivided attention. I look forward to meeting your special pooch!
