Max

  Breed: Goldendoodle

  Weight: 95 lbs

  Age: 9 years old

I am a single home owner who lives a dog and work from home. I do like to take some time off and I’m sure some of you members do too. Pet hotels though recommended but can get expensive. Plus the fact remains older the pet gets it becomes tougher for them to adjust with unknown people and environment. Hence decided to join the club..
