I have had dogs my whole 33 years of life. Even had three at once for 5 years. I absolutely adore doggies and consider them part of the family. I have personally care for dogs for 13 years, 5 of those years it was professionally in my home. All breeds, ages, and weight ranging from 5lb to 100lbs. Even had to administer some medication to a few while they were staying over. I can do minimal grooming such as: bathing, drying, brushing, and trimming nails. They will have a large fenced backyard to run and play in. Lots of hugs and love will be given while your baby stays with us.
