I have been taking care of family and friend’s dogs and puppies for 10 years. I have a black lab who I have trained myself and I also have helped raise my families black lab. With this experience I have also given medication to puppies and dogs (eye drops, creams, and pills). I always make sure there is time for my dogs to go on walks and have time to play. I am a stay at home mom so I am around all day most days. I have a larger yard surrounded by bushes to give a visual for dogs of their boundaries but no actual fence structure. I go for walks daily and am outside when I am home. I also have many dog toys for your dog to play with. My husband also is home during the evenings and he is great with dogs. We have a black lab who is almost 5 years old. She has had a lot of exposure to children of all ages and dogs of all sizes. She is playful and sweet. She enjoys interacting with other dogs and cuddling with children. I have 2 little boys so dogs I watch need to be gentle and good around kids and babies.
