I've opened my home to two complete strangers in the past couple of years. I flew a lady with Azrael from TN. to CA. and let her stay with me for a mini-vacation for a week. She had never been out of TN. Next, a few months ago when I found a home for Libby, a long haired Chihuahua puppy I got out of a shelter, I let her new mom come down from San Jose and stay with me. We are now great friends and visit back and forth. I'm a very trusting person and love to help doggies.........people too.
