Hi there, I have had and been around dogs all my life. I was born and raised on a farm and worked on horse farms. During that time I also worked part time in a vet clinic, assisting in daily care and procedures of all types of animals. I currently have 2 dogs, a German shorthair and a Weimaraner, yes I love my bird dogs! My girls are used to being around others and are very good hosts! They have no issues sharing toys and always love to play run in the back yard! We have a nice back yard that is fully fenced, a doggie pool when it gets hot, and a quiet neighborhood for lots of walks. Your fur babies are considered like my own, I can assure you that they will feel right at home in my home!
