I have always been around dogs, as long as I can remember. I have owned a golden retriever, a black Labrador mix from the shelter and currently a dachshund/black Labrador mix also rescued from a shelter. I run/walk my own dogs 3 times daily - early morning, afternoon and evening. I also have a big grass back yard (completely fenced) for lots and lots of playing. I often play catch, play with a rope or throw a Frisbee with my dog throughout the day. I also have a 13 and 15 year old who adore dogs of any breed and will give your dog (s) lots of TLC playing with them in the back yard, supervised by me. My children, however, will NOT be walking your dog, just me. My dog is 1 years old, and absolutely loves to play with every imaginable dog he has encountered whether at a dog park, a playground, or a friends home. Therefore, your dog will have a blast playing (and getting tons of exercise) and socializing with my own dog too.
