I've grown up with and owned dogs since I was 2 years old- black lab mixes and a lab/border collie mix. I've also fostered dogs multiple times which helps fill my void for having my own. I also happen to be my parents' dog Rosie's favorite (my Mom gets so jealous) but it's true! I will do everything in my power to make any dog love me so yours will definitely be in good hands! I live very close to a few parks and am an outdoorsy person so your dog will enjoy lots of long walks through the city. I'm known to give the occasional table food so please let me know if that is a no no. Looking forward to meeting your best fur friend! :)
