I have three dogs ranging from a chihuahua I found in the hot summer month of Vegas who we call shadow, another small dog named muffin and my baby of all the ladies coco my medium sized dog in my profile picture. I take them hiking on the trails of Lake Mead recreational areas, parks, and local dog parks during the winter. We swim with muffin and at time have up to 7 dogs in the pool at once because we get visits from our fury family visiting with humans lol and it becomes a weekend retreat with lots of family fun and doggy attention. We have a big backyard with a medium sized doggy door. We don't vacation without our own dogs unless we can take our dogs along. We consider them as our kids, treat and love them unconditionally. I would treat other dogs as I would treat or want my dogs to be treated.
