I have always had a dog. I feel that a pet is part of our family. They deserve the best care possible. Our awesome lab passed away two years and it was so hard. We finally got another dog and we're having a great time together He is 17 months old and absolutely loves to play with other dogs. We have a cat that minds his own business, but likes to check out the dogs from behind the shadows. My children also love animals, and when they are home they are playing with the dog or help with clean up. I'm active and love getting out to walk the dogs. My friends call me when they need someone to check in on their dogs. I look forward to meeting you and your dog.
