I have two dogs, they are a basset hound and a miniature schnauzer. My husband and I have had them since before we were married and I grew up always having dogs. My two boys love dogs especially my youngest. We have plenty of time to play with and walk the dogs we are watching. We found a dog a few months ago and it took a week to find the owner. We loved and cared for him like he was our own. My oldest was sad to see him go. I know the whole family would love getting to spend out days with doggies.
