Dogs have always been a part of our family. My son who is an avid hunter has trained both his Labs. One of his labs is from the litter that we raised. This was definitely a lot of work but I would do it again in a heartbeat. I loved it that much. I work from home and in the office so I'm pretty flexible and can adjust my schedule to comply with your dog's normal routine with meals, walks, and potty breaks or anything else they may need. I am at home often throughout the day and every evening. I will send frequent photos and updates throughout your dog's stay. We live in the country on 2 acres and currently have a Bassett Lab that is our big baby. We also have a fenced area if needed or we can crate. Dogs have always been a part of our family and I'm always wanting to take home every dog I see abandoned. We want to make sure all Fur Babies are happy because they are truly the ones that make us happy.
