I had 3 dogs up until May. They were old and we lost the small one in May, then our lab mix developed cancer in July and had her put down. Our other rescue dog, a Choc lab, had bad hips and nothing left of his back knees. We had to put him down in August. I love a dog in my life, I miss the love and affection and the challenge they bring with different personalities. Right now we are in an RV park in Needles that allows dogs. Would love to have a dog in my life. I am not looking to enjoy a dog while helping someone else. I am retired and have time to share with a dog. Love Dogs and the love they give
