I give individual attention to all of the dogs in my care. I have been hosting some dogs for more than 5 years now. I love them and they love me. When they arrive, their owners often have to contain the leash because the dogs are so excited to see me. I have a huge fenced back yard where they play and i throw toys for them. My dog Lucky, a Coon Hound, loves the guest dogs too. He and the guest dogs often sit under my feet when I am working at the computer. During the occasional thunderstorm, all of the dogs huddle around me for comfort, and I cuddle with all of them. It is such a joy to have dogs in my life.
