I have two golden retrievers aged three and four and couldn't imagine life without them! They sleep with me at night. One is like a headboard in bed and the other one spoons me! Whenever we go on vacation the dogs come with us. We just got back from three days in the mountains and they went every where with us! Vail, Colorado is so dog friendly! We were able to bring the dogs into grocery stores, bars, restaurants and Movie theaters. Everybody was so friendly and constantly asking if the could pet our dogs. It is going to be hard for them when we go back to work tomorrow and they have to hang at home!
