I grew up on a farm with dogs, both large and small. For the past 17 years I've been a mini-schnauzer mom. I had to put down my 14 yo schnauzer 2 years ago. I'm not ready for another 'full-time' 2nd dog yet, but miss having more than 1 around. My dog, Cooper, is like my child and I will treat your pet with the same loving care. When it's not raining or snowing, Cooper and I spend a lot of time enjoying my huge backyard, or taking walks through the neighborhood. I work close to home and come home for lunch every day, so your pet won't go more than 4 hours without a potty break. Cooper and I would love to host your dog! :)
