We are a young & active couple who have a 2-year-old labrador retriever who loves to have buddies sleep over. :) We both grew up with dogs as well and are very comfortable and confident in caring for them. We live in the NE Minneapolis area. Our house is clean, spacious and has a fenced in yard. Your dog won't go a day without being loved on! We're also very good about making sure the dogs are disciplined and don't break the rules. We love nothing more than to take dogs to the dog park and go on long walks. Our lab loves being around other dogs and would love to have playmates stay over. We're confident your pup will love their stay at our home! We hope to talk to you soon!
