I have been a dog owner. I have owned small dogs and large dogs. I have worked at rescue kennels in Colorado and New Hampshire. I worked in doggie daycare in Colorado in free range and individual dog settings. I was also a dog sled musher for a sled dog rescue kennel. I know how important your pup is, as mine was my world. “I think dogs are the most amazing creatures; they give unconditional love. For me, they are the role model for being alive.” —Gilda Radner **The house we live in is split and 2 very sweet male dogs live upstairs and would share just backyard space with your pet.
