I grew up with a family dog since I was a child and have always loved dogs. Four years ago I adopted my own golden retriever pup and he is now a happy-go-lucky fluff ball. I've raised him since he was a puppy and I've gone through all the potty training and basic commands. I go on daily long walks and I'm used to lots of play. I frequently dog sit for friends and family which also calls for overnight stays from time to time as well.
