Hi! I love dogs, and the bigger the better! In fact, I can only take bigger dogs that weigh more than 20 pounds. My fence does not go all the way to the ground in some spots and little dogs can get under it! I am a stay-at-home mom who loves all animals, but we only own dogs. I have four younger kids who love to help with the dogs that come where they can. The youngest is 5 and the oldest is 10. I have two border collies that I love to train but are getting old (they are 11) and love to just sleep now. They still know how to get the remote, clean up their toys, speak, and do all sorts of other tricks though. We babysit pretty consistently for our neighbors and seem to always have an extra dog or two.
