Never met a dog that didn't make me smile--I'm an ear scratching pro--doggie door access to fenced back yard--lots of shaded areas to relax and cool off--water available full time-inside or outside--I am home full time for supervision--dogs can be kept separate if necessary--not responsible for some dogs being spoiled beyond their Owners wishes--I have had dogs most of my life, some I have trained but most have trained me, about love, devotion and faithfulness. All dogs have different needs: some want to be left alone, some want to play, some take awhile to get to know. I believe in giving them time to express themselves and not put undue stress on them. I enjoy trying to figure out their moods, and then proceeding to get to know them.
