When I was a baby I was crawling on Great Danes. When I entered adulthood I got my own pups and love/loved them dearly. I have had my own dogs and cared for friends' dogs for many many years. They are my companions and I treat them as my friends. I love hiking and even more hiking with the fur babies. As they say, "A tired dog is a good dog!" My pup is 3 years old and is super playful and is feeling a bit lonely these days, so she is looking forward to this as well! I have three other dog-loving housemates and a giant yard to go play, so the house is rarely empty, and they can go in and out often throughout the day.
