We are a military family with 2 young boys and our own cute little Spanish Bodega doggy we adopted while stationed in Spain. I watched lots of pets for military friends while staioned in Spain since we all traveled alot! My boys and I love having extra furry friends at home with us while my husband is deployed although now we have Daddy home for a few years~ Hooray!! Our yard is totally fenced in and our pup loves to run and play with other doggies! I can take your pup running with me in the mornings if he likes to run and we live in a quiet Ellicott City neighborhood that's great for long walks. I am a stay at home Mom and only leave the house for a few hours each morning. Doggies can go out in the yard on thier own or be walked every few hours.
