My wife (Megan) and I are avid runners so your dog will have plenty of opportunities for a walk or run at varying distances. We live right next to the 16th street sidewalk/trail do your dog will have a safe place to walk. Our 3 kids love dogs and will give your dog lots of attention. As we are both teachers we are not available during the middle of the day during the school year but we are available all day during the summer break. Megan and I both grew up obedience training dogs for 4H and FFA and have experience with many different dog breeds. We currently have a male beagle that we walk, run, and hunt with. He is our “first” kid and your dog will be treated like a member of the family too!
