My husband and I have each grown up with dogs since day one! We added May and Spooky, the happiest labradoodles, to our family shortly after we got married. Currently they are 15 months and 10 months old and full of energy! We already watch fur babies of our friends and family and Eric, May, Spooky and I all love the company! We already dedicate plenty of time to playing with The babies in our backyard, walking around the block and even going to the dog park which is only 2 miles away! May and Spooky stay outside each day from about 8:30-3:30 in our backyard which is a great place to stay and play! (Weather pending of course) I am lucky to work 1 Mile from Home and come home at lunch often for play time and walks especially on days when they stay in. There are several shaded areas and a covered porch to hang out on, a kiddie pool to cool off in and toys scattered across the yard!
