As I just moved to WA, my dog is now with my daughter in FL. I think this will be a great idea to met new people and their pets. I love long walks and who better than lovely dogs for company. The Physical exercise will help me too. I also love older dogs as mine is a 13 year old beagle. I got my fist pet when I was yrs old and it was an 8 week old pomeranian puppy. My mom was so scared of the tiny pup that she got up on the dining table after I left for school!! My dad comes home for lunch and found her on the dining table! I am excited for this new opportunity to meet new friends!
