I'm currently a stay at home mom of Three small children. We stay pretty active either inside or outside depending on Texas weather ( We all know how that is). I have the time to care for your dog the way you'd want. I have previously been an owner of shihtzus for over 7 years and love playing and cuddling with animals. If you're dog likes longer walks I'm familiar with the parks in the area as I have small children who also love to run and play. I also have a fenced back yard that allows for leash free play and potty breaks. If your dog prefers the indoors I have a home with enough space for them to still get their excercise .
