A typical day

All dogs staying with us are given alot of love and attention. They are allowed on the furniture in the living room and the back bedroom doors and bathroom are kept shut they have access to a back porch where they can lounge on outdoor furniture and a fenced in area to roam around and do their business. We give two walks a day during the summer months. One in the cool early morning hours and the second around sundown. During cooler months it would also be in the afternoon.
