I have only lived with out a dog in my life for less than two years. My first pup Shiloh was a black Labrador and a few years after he past I found my new friend, Parker. I found him quite literally at a park and then brought him to the animal shelter where he didn't stay for long. I adopted Parker as soon as I could. Parker is 8 years old and while we call him a rabbit he is a bichon frise poodle mix. Parker is a very friendly dog. Besides my own personal dogs I have pet sit for family and friends since I was in middle school. (2006) Your dog could be walked or ran with me.
