Jim retired from the Department of Defense at NAS North Island on January 2nd, 2003. Anna retired soon thereafter. Since that time, as many young retirees do, they have spent their summer months traveling the country in their RV with their 2 Shelties Max, 4 and Chandler, 2. Everywhere they go, they gravitate towards other dog owners, visiting and making new friends. Max & Chandler are very social and playful and enjoy visiting and meeting new dog friends also.

Jim and Anna have owned and loved animals all of their lives. Anna grew up on a farm in Wyoming with dogs and cats all around, and Jim raised pigeons in a backyard aviary and had several dogs in his life as well.

They live in a quaint little home on a beautiful, large bay view lot that is fully fenced and cross fenced. “Guests” are welcome both inside and outside of their home. Their home could comfortably accommodate up to 4 small to medium sized dogs (under 50 lbs.
