I have been a "dog person" my whole life. My husband was a K9 handler of an explosive detection K9 named Fritzi who we have since adopted to live out his retirement years. I have experience taking care of special needs dogs including a diabetic, insulin dependent yellow lab and an extremely skittish labradoodle who is on daily medication for anxiety. I have no issues with any special diets or requirements needed to make sure your dog is happy and healthy while they are in my care. I will treat your dogs like part of the family including plenty of play time in my huge fenced yard and of coarse daily snuggles on the sofa. It is stressful for your dog to be away from you and I understand that. My goal is to make sure your dog feels as comfortable as they can while they are with me.
