Because of our schedules, we have time through out the day to get our dogs out and moving around. The Shepard is an old man and would prefer to be on the couch and our three legged one loves to chase the squirrels in the fenced back yard.

Safety, trust & environment

My goal is to treat your dog as if it were my own. Working with the rescue was a great training tool for how to care for animals as if they were your own with the understanding that they were not. I feel as if it is a friendship where I get to hang out with a freind for 30-60 minutes a day.

Pet care experience

Besides growing up with pets, 2-3 dogs in the home my whole life, my mother also ran a rescue where I was helping transport and find homes for them. I had a husky in college and when I met my wife she also had a rescued collie mix. We currently have a rescued German Shepard and a three legged rescue who could be any breed. We also have a cat whk runs the house. Our animals are our family.
