I had dreams of this business since 1994.
It started when I rescued my own dog Thor,
and was distraught whenever we had to leave him!
I couldn't bear the thought of putting him in any kind
of facility, or using a house or pet sitter.

His wonderful behavior warranted better than that -
a safe, comfortable, peaceful, stimulating and loving
home like ours. I just knew there were other dog lovers
out there that thought like me...

My hunch was correct, by the response from our customers!
They want the best for their dogs too -
a loving home, nothing else will do!
So, worry no more
for we've opened our door!

Rich and I have our professional degrees
in education and counseling.
Rich continues working in this field from home
and because I was determined to fulfill this dream,
I needed to discontinue teaching full time.

I sought out various part time positions
to supplement income. This has allowed us
to pursue our passion and business -
caring for these precious creatures called dogs!
******************

Perhaps we can use our
counseling skills on him?

Rich reading to Cannon?

We have been fortunate to have
one of our passions, become a business!
Even though the doggies occupy
most of our heart, we also love to play tennis,
read, ballroom dance, entertain and travel.
What a joy it is to come home to them!
See how Jackson howls with joy too!!
