I grew up on a farm with many dogs and also pigs, chickens, geese, and ducks. Now the father to a very sweet but spoiled Jindo/ terrier mix who loves playdates, and would love to meet your dog. I have some experience training and have given my own dogs medication, happy to follow your instructions. I work from home and will almost always be home when your dog comes to stay. I will leave rarely for emergency situations. My partner is home in the mornings, evenings, and some days as well. We can welcome your dog short term or long term, depending on your situation. If you have questions, please message me. I have a fenced-in yard that is quite large for shadyside (25' x 60'). Throughout the day, many peopel walk by. If your dog is a territorial or overly vocal with passersby, please send me a message before booking. I have a dog, Lula, who gets along with all other dogs. Lula has yet to meet a dog that she didn't want to play with. That being said she has a pretty good intuition about not bothering older or shy dogs. My partner is often home too (works part time and sometimes from home) and she loves dogs and will help out with feeding and walking if she is home (4 days / nights a week).
