Full Time Attention, Care & Exercise for Your Dogs & Cats! Your doggies can expect Dog Park visits, desert hiking, or simply a nice walk with a little leash training for a mile or two dependent upon their breed. "Hey! but hold on I'm not sure my dog likes cats!" No worries, in those instances the cats are kept safe in their own happy quarters in my office or separate room if they prefer lots of quiet time. I'm Looking forward to offering Your Doggies or Cats*: Overnight & Daytime Boarding for your happy Pets. Most breeds accepted. (Dog Beds & food dishes provided, & *Walnut shell litter box style or bring your own.) My family raised Samoyed's for show, & throughout my life I've had the great opportunity to travel Europe and Central America with many of my Pet Companions.

Dogs* & Cats of all sizes are welcome**. *Extra Large dogs 100+ lbs: an additional $10 per day fee. **most breeds & varieties. I'm a "husky-dog" person, and very familiar with huskies as dog friends. Tough Pullers: If your large dog is a strong lead puller, I prefer to not use prong collars, and I can use the "Gentle Leader" for at least a few walks if you like. It fits like a bonnet over the top base of their nose and chin. I've had lots of success with untrained dogs being able to take a normal walks all of a sudden. Some dogs require only a few sessions with the leader collar, then off to slip lead of either choke chain (pop method) or slip rope depending upon the power of the animal. Your dog(s) may roam most of my house and can crate themselves if they want to play dog house snooze-time. Yet, I do no not crate them unless the owner specifies a need for it. ie., destructive chewing, if I leave the house which is rare. The commercial pet world is pushing a bunch of indoor crates & furniture, I feel these items are too dangerous in the hands of certain owners, and yet there's no way to stop the selling of them to just anyone who wants one. Sweden has already outlawed crates. Please only crate when it's a short time-out, puppy training or in-use as their open dog house. If your dog destroys your furniture and clothing etc, he or she requires proper chew toys, from long lasting pet-ready knobbly rubber toys, hard bones with marrow or kong toys. If your dog has past the teething stage 1-2 yrs. (Normally, your Vet helps during the puppy stage regarding chewing.) Yet... after the puppy stage, I'd advise a Vet visit to help determine if there's a nutritional deficiency or something else causing the habit. Games: I play lots of music: Jazz, Latino, Cuban, Conga, Tango, Samba, Classical Guitar, Piano, Ravi Shankar, etc, & I play the conga or tabla drums as well. So we have our own cat & dog parties. Indoor tennis fetch & frisbee; which some of the dogs go cuckoo over. Often, I cook or bake, which they enjoy being around. Daily walk!! If Wanting Doggie Day Care Only: My Preference: not over the weekends & weekdays are only for a few hours of ie., 10-4. All-in-all, I have 5 doggies sleeping at my feet right now, so I can only presume they love being here during their Holiday away from home.
