I grew up with dogs my whole life! My husband and I are both huge animal lovers and we have an Australian shepherd mix fur baby (7 years old but still a mama's boy!) We live in a large house and we have a green large and private fenced yard. Since I am at home full time I will be able to provide daily photos and updates so you could have a piece of mind. Also, I believe your dog deserves all the attention so we are taking one dog at a time. Your dog will be in great hands. We allow dogs on our furniture because who doesn't like to cuddle?! Don't hesitate to contact me if you have any more questions or for more details ill be happy to help =)
