I am a full time high school teacher with a lot of doggie love to give! I had a dog previously that has passed away from cancer. I had to administer IV fluids myself, so I am used to a little extra care if necessary. We have just rescued our first dog and he is a sweetie. He loves everyone, and is very well behaved. I have an 8 year old that loves dogs more than anything. She has wanted to be a vet since she was 3. We live on a hill with a lot of plants to smell and discover... and of course to tire them out. My large yard will provide a huge "play pen" so that we can play fetch or chase around toys. My friends have called me “the dog whisperer”. I have more patience than most people can imagine possible, and will help your furry baby feel right at home!
