HELLO
Fur Friends!
Meet Dante; my resident sighthound pooch, he is an Italian Greyhound. Dante is ready to sniff out your furry friend. He is my best friend, my adventure buddy, a cuddle bug who hates the wind, rain and cold (and admittedly has too many clothes!). He makes instant friends with dogs of all shapes and sizes and loves to play, RUN, hide under the blankets and steal your cheese!
Dante (and his human) love meeting new 4 legged friends and looks forward to meeting yours soon.
Update: we've recently moved from Fireside to River Song where we enjoy a large fenced yard for your dogs to play!

ABOUT
THE OWNER
Amber of Homeward Hounds River Song was born & raised in British Columbia, I moved to the Fireside community of Cochrane in winter 2019. I've never known a life without pets as my family always had a house full of fur-friends since before I was born. I've been dog-walking, dog-boarding since 2018 and love meeting new dogs and bringing home a friend for Dante to play with. I keep active throughout the day/evening and provide 1:1 friendly & caring services to your best friend.
Client update: we've recently moved to River Song where we enjoy a larger play-space and a fully-fenced large back yard.
