I am a big animal lovers. If it was realistic to have a farm of cats and dogs I totally would. Instead, I'll just watch over yours while you're away, and spoil them rotten. I have 3 year old Chiweenie (Mikki) whose best friends are two cats he likes to wrestle and nap with. After a little warm up, he's a good doggie host too. He loves a good romp, likes to share his toys and likes to chase or be chased around the house or yard. I have a medium sized fence yard, big enough for small to medium sized dogs. I never leave anyone outside alone. Occasionally, Mikki and I go for walks in the woods near Old Hickory lake in the afternoon. If your dog likes a little outdoor adventure, we're happy to take him/her along!
