I do offer what I call mid day dog "smalks" which
all dogs enjoy. They get out of the house for a
nice walk and get to smell all the good things
that dogs love to smell on their walks:) I will not
take them on "smalks" when the mid day heat is
too much for them. Dogs over heat quickly in the
mid day sun and should not be exposed to it for
a prolonged period. I will also not take them out
if the weather is threatening to either the dog or
myself. In those instances they will be let out to
go "potty" and then brought back inside for
some playtime.


Your dog will NEVER be walked off leash as I do
not believe any responsible pet owner would
chance their pets safety or the safety of anyone
else's pet or persons.


I am experienced with "special needs" pets and
have administered insulin to diabetic cats, cared
for blind and deaf dogs and my own German
Shepard was epileptic and on 2 medications to
control the seizures.  I have cared for cats with
thyroid conditions as well as dogs with thyroid
problems and administered medication to them
for it.  I have also cared for dogs that were
being treated for cancer and even one with a
brain tumor.  I am Red Cross certified in animal
first aid and cpr.
