I have had pets for as long as I can remember. I love all animals, although I have both a cat and a dog, I am definitely more of a dog person. I am very loving and caring with them. I love to go on walks and to the doggy parks. My cat and dog both get along very well with other dogs, and animals. Both are fully vaccinated and up to date with all shots. I do currently work full time, so am gone from 7;30- about 5 when I get home. So if your dog needs to be crated I while I'm gone I would need to know that. If they are well behaved uncrated that is fine too. Whichever is best for your pooch. I also recently started as a volunteer at the Sioux Falls Humane Society.
