I enjoy staying active and have a long hair chihuahua (chewie) that enjoys going for hikes :-). Chewie is a member of the family and has a lot of spunk. The best jogging partners I've had have been energetic dogs. Rusty, a golden retriever, was my favorite jogging partner and then later best walking partner. One of the greatest feelings ever is when a dog/cat chooses me over other people in the room. I like all breeds. I have owned big dogs and little dogs. At the moment I just have chewie. I look forward to caring/playing and becoming a friend to your four legged family member. Feel free to ask any questions. I am available during the day, my son will be getting out of school after 2pm.
