I grew up with dogs in our home and currently have a wonderful medium goldendoodle and miniature dachshund. They are a part of our family and your pet will be too. I am super lucky to be able to work from home which allows me flexibility to let the doggos out anytime they need to go and get plenty of puppy snuggles. We have a great fenced-in yard. Our dogs love other dogs and enjoy having a friend to play with during workdays or while you're away for a few days. I was able to potty train Emmy in under two weeks and am comfortable caring for puppies. House-trained dogs over 1 year are allowed to sleep outside of the kennel wherever they are comfortable; however, I am happy to take puppies out for middle of the night potty breaks and let them sleep near us so they feel secure. I do not kennel during the day, so they're able to socialize. I have three children who also love dogs. They are at school during the workday, but would be home for overnight and weekend periods. I work from home and typically take pups on a mid-morning and afternoon walk. If your pup is here before/after school or on weekends they will love playing with the kiddos and getting snuggles! We have a great fenced yard for play time and potty breaks.
