my experienced that my own dogs were in all life since I was little girl. Also, I have my own lab Chocolate right now and she is 9 years old. I working at Texas school for the deaf as sub Teacher Asst. I tent to feed her small amount food every morning and bathroom before I go work and come back around 4pm then take her bathroom almost every day. have to other feed her small amount for night time around dinner time. Sometime I take her walking, go park and visit friends house who have other dog. I would communication with any clients on the text instead of email or phone. I will send you pictures to make sure you see where your dogs at. and I take care of your pets. I promised treated your pets same as my own like that I said no dogs should treated differently. all dogs are my medicine and best in my life.
