I've been around dogs my entire life. My mom is a leading breeder of Border Collies in the United States, and I grew up training and showing dogs. As an adult, I'm lucky to be dog Mom to Matteo, a 1 1/2-year old Border Collie who is the light of my life. We love to hike, walk and play, and if your dog comes to stay with us, they will get the same experience, as well as the chance to play with my pup (who is seriously the sweetest guy around!). We look forward to hanging out with dog and hiking the trails around Raccoon River Park where Matteo and I like to spend a lot of our time! Looking forward to meeting your pup!
