I have a 1 year old Golden Retriever for your dog to become best friends with. I take him everywhere. I know what its like going out of town and being away from your pup and wondering every 10 min what he's up to, and I am happy to send as many pictures/updates as you want. I am very active and Griggs Park is just down the street, where Wally and I frequent a lot. I own a condo in State Thomas neighborhood in Uptown - and I am located 2 minutes away from CityVet Uptown in case of an emergency, which is where Wally goes. Tons of dog toys everywhere as Wally made me sign him up for BarkBox. Your dog will also have full access to Wally's memory foam bed as Wally prefers sleeping on the hardwood floor.
