I grew up with many animals but always had a knack for dogs. My dachshund has several food allergies, so, I am experienced in taking every precaution necessary to avoid problems. I grew up with two Great Danes and currently have two German shepherds along with the dachshund. The dachshund sleeps inside and the two German Shepherds stay outdoors (except for on cold nights). I have watched pets for family and friends over the years, both drop-in visits and overnight stays. I like to mix training and playing in order to teach dogs new tricks while still having fun. All of our dogs are very well trained and behaved. Our dachshund knows several tricks and we enjoy every minute of our fur babies. Please let me know if you would like for us to take care of yours!
