Me and my 10 year old son want a dog very much but it's not the right time for us. We thought a wonderful alternative is to take care of other dogs in the meantime. This will also teach him responsibility with a dog and we have a lot of love and care to share with your dog(s). We live in a townhouse so it is not an apartment but it is a dog friendly complex in downtown Tempe. We have a lot of grass around and are across the street from a park and dog park also. We just recently lost our precious Ruby, who was a cholcolate lab/pitbull. She was the love of our life. We miss the presence of a dog. Look forward to helping out!
