I have had many dogs since childhood. I can't recall a time I wasn't living with out a fur baby. I have past experience with puppy deliveries, and had a Border Collie who was paralyzed from a fall. I am also able to give meds if needed. I currently have 2 Border Collies, a Jack Russell mix, 3 cats of which one is deaf, and 2 Netherland Dwarf rabbits. I have great respect for animals, like to spoil them, and make them a priority. I know how important it is for your furbaby to not feel like he's alone. Walking , exercise and playtime is as important for your pooch and helps me out too ! I have a pretty flexible schedule, but always try to accomodate if necessary.
