For as long as I can remember, dogs have been an important part of my life - - part of my family. My wife and I had the privilege to raise, train, and love seven dogs... so far. We've had dogs large & small, high energy dogs & lap dogs. I have fostered dogs and helped care for our friends' dogs. I pride myself in training my dogs. I would be honored to help care for your dog or dogs. My backyard is large enough for them to run and my I two blue heelers love to play with company. of course, I can keep them separated from your dog if they do not want to play together for any reason. I'm happy to let your dog be either inside or outside as much as you'd like. I am comfortable with all breeds and all personality types. I'd be honored to care for your dog; I will take care of them like family.
