I have had dogs since age 13. As a family we have always had dogs, and wife and sons, both in high school are eager to help you with whatever you need. We will take care of your dog like a part of our family. My wife and I work full time. We are available before and after work as well as evenings, nights and weekends. Our sons are also available after school. Our home has a large yard, and there is a park within walking distance. There is also a dog park nearby. We are currently fostering a dog from a shelter who is dog-selective. Until he is adopted we would need to let him meet any dog we would board in our home.
