I have 4 dogs of my own, 2 Westies (girls) 2 Japanese Chins (boys) all are neutered, very welcoming for new dogs, as I also babysit a Staffie (Tyke) (big baby) during the month as well. I have room, I live at the end of a farm track that is surrounded by fields and we are .9 miles from the main road. Our dogs enjoy warmth by the fire in the living room, they are allowed on the furniture in the living room, they are a part of our family, we are lucky that they allow us to live with them. I am home all day, my husband works so have the time, the space and the love to have more visit us if their owners go on holiday.
