We have our own little guy, "Harley", who is a shihtzu/toy spaniel and he is 3 years old. He is the love of our lives. We are an active family, weather permitting we are outside. Either on the soccer, baseball or Lacrosse field. Oh I should mention, "we", is my 12 and 13 year olds. Our neighbors have 4 dogs and the kids love taking all 5 on walks. We live close to Lincoln Park and Alki. We are gone all day but once we are home, you can feel confident that your dog will be loved and well taken care of with us. The kids and Harley are great with all size dogs, especially big ones (they wanted me to add that). We are very excited to meet you and your puppy!
