Hello my name is Shawna! I live with my husband, our 3 boys under 5, and our 10 year old dog Zoe. I have many years of dog and farm animal experience. I live on just over an acre of land in the Ranchettes which is a rural neighborhood 5 miles from Punta Gorda Airport.. Our entire property is fenced (even the driveway) and the gate is always shut so no need to worry about your dog running off. Our family loves to be outside with the dogs. If it is a hot day we make sure the dogs don’t stay out too long at a time and keep them hydrated. We play fetch or just let the dogs explore and enjoy the outdoors. While inside the dogs will be allowed to roam freely and given plenty of attention and treated like our own. Zoe loves to bark at people and their dogs when they first arrive but she is friendly and loves the chance to socialize and play with other dogs. I am able to be home all but 2 days a week which are Wednesday and Thursday. I am gone for 7 hours those days but able to come home after 4 hours to give dogs a bathroom break. I ask for puppies who are not fully housebroken to be crate trained at night.
