I've lived with and loved dogs all my life! Over the years I've been involved with all the different aspects of their care--feeding, exercise, training, grooming, and health care. And, I speak dog. ;) Our home is open to your pup 7 days a week. We homeschool our kids, so I'm home most of the day; dates and times are super flexible. We have a large-ish suburban home with an ample fenced yard. Our four kids are great with dogs, so there will be plenty of love for yours! We're also training a sweet new addition right now: Appa, a 1yo malshi (12lbs), who provides some eager doggy companionship.
