I am a huge dog lover and have been around dogs my whole life. Having had several different breeds, I can handle any age or size of dog. I enjoy being active outdoors whether its playing ball in my fenced back yard, trips to the dog park, or miles of hiking. I have a 1 year old goofy labradoodle who loves having a friend over and loves all dog companions and a friendly pitbull terrier puppy who is the laziest dog in the world! My husband and I are both in the fire department and have flexible hours, so someone is almost always home! We allow our dogs on furniture and our bed so of course your dog can jump right up too! We have a 6 year old - so if your furry friend is not friendly with kids please let me know!
