I've had at least one lab for the past 20 years and often host other dogs for days or weeks at a time. My lab and I hike Sun Mountain with fellow dog lovers at 6 every morning and then he comes to work with me where he dozes and makes friends. We also live down the street from Frank Ortiz Dog Park for weekend or evening excursions. Occasionally we go up to Taos so we can take longer hikes in the ski valley. My office is pet friendly for well-behaved canines so it's seldom that dogs get left at home for more than a couple of hours. If they are home, there is a fenced yard, or they can hang in the house. Please note that I cannot house sit your dog in your home. Thanks!
