I've been taking care of dogs since I was 12 years old. My father relied on me to take care of his hunting dogs. I have always felt the need to have a dog in my life. They become part of your family. I have trained dogs and puppies that you think might be untrainable. I have taught puppy mill dogs, what it means to be a part of family and be loved. I'm currently working from home and have plenty of time to play with your pup and give them the company they need so they are not being home alone. My back yard will be an adventure for your pet with the pond and dog run, they will get a chance to seek out lizards, run, jump and chase other dogs around pool. I do have a fenced in yard and can easily allow your pet outside exercise and relaxing time they need. There is a dog park near by. I have a wadding pool if your dog needs a splash on a hot summer day. Did I mention my husband and I have plenty of love to give your pet. Our daughter lives with us and she is a Vet Technician and loves dogs just as much as we do. ALL PETS MUST BE UP TO DATE ON ALL SHOTS AND ON FLEE PREVENTION.
