Hey! I will probably end up spoiling your four legged friend with lots of lovins and treats, if I have their parent's permission of course. I have cared for my German shepherd for the past 2 years, taught him basic commands such as sit, down, shake, etc. Dogs are very intelligent and I believe they should be steered in the right direction to utilize that amazing intelligence! Your four legged family member will never experience a boring day vacationing with me and my Dakota! We will do everything possible to ensure that your family member has the great vacation, having lots of fun with walks, fetch, and chasing squirrels in my backyard, and have plenty of opportunity to utilize that awesome brain they were given!
