I grew up in Montana & had outside dogs for my entire childhood. I never understood how an animal could be a family member. And then I got Lola. Lola was a big female boxer, and my best friend. We did everything together. I now have Lilli (a boxer, German shepherd, Siberian husky mix), who quickly took ownership of a piece of my heart. Lills is a giant ball of energy. I had Lolie from 8 weeks and in her nearly 9 years she had many health issues, so I have experience with that. I also have experience with the wild energy of puppies. Lilli is a rescue with an unknown past & she has settled into our family well. I am active, responsible & young at heart. I'd love to give your pup lots of attention & love while you are away. When I care for your dog, he/she will be loved on, exercised, cuddled, played with, walked, ran and/or hiked and will return to you content & relaxed; happy to see you, and having had an adventure or two.
