I grew up in a house hold, with 7 dogs jack Russell, Chesapeake Bay, corgi/ border collie, blue healer, 2 labs, Australian Shepherd/ lab. 4 of them were resuce, these dogs were polite and well mannered.. They taught me a lot about acceptance. When I was little all of the little lab puppies we had would absolutely love the death out of me. I would get off the bus and lay down in the of our driveway and they would all run over and lick me and all I did was giggle and giggle. I love playing with them all day when I can, taking them to the parks and taking them in walks. They will feel right at home with me. I love all breeds and puppies.. Look forward to meeting your wonderful companion.
