Doglovers always recognize each other, whether it's by pats given to every passing pet, leads hanging in various places in the house, fancy dog bowls, photos shown at every opportunity or the number of friendships formed at the local park. I've grown up with dogs, couldn't be without at least one by my side, and would love the opportunity to be part of a bigger fur family. I have in the past cared for several friends' dogs, from large Amstaffs to tiny poodles. I have had experience with deaf dogs, ageing dogs and their associated needs, and very playful pups. My home is fully fenced, and my own dog is always happy to share her space. I've usually had rescue dogs and have experience with many different breeds. Friends know I take my dog everywhere with me, on holidays etc but if there's a new dog in the park, pet advice will always be freely given out! Sometimes it takes a village .. I'd like to think this would be the house I'd love to bring my dog to if I needed. The number of other pets in the menagerie; budgies, a bearded dragon, a snake, a marine tank and several fishponds outdoors attests to the love and care I have for all animals and I look forward to the opportunity to welcome your pet into my home.
