I am super excited to meet your cute little buddy, we'll have a great time! My dog Ralph also absolutely LOVES other dogs and tends to bring out the best even in shy, skittish dogs because he is so mellow. I have had Ralph for five years. He was a rescue, and at four years old he was not potty trained, he couldn't go up or down stairs, and he was very timid and afraid of most people. Through my loving care he is now a happy, friendly, well trained and healthy dog who lives for adventure. Previous to Ralph, I co-parented my roommate's chihuahua for two years. Last summer I cared for a friend's chihuahua and pug for a week in New York City, and last March, while my neighbors were in the Carribean for a month, I dog sat their two incredibly vivacious black labs, one of whom had a cast on one leg from a previous injury. We all had a great time together!
