    Description

    I live in Agliana, a little town near Florence in Tuscany. It's a very quiet and green place. Peolpe are kind, and the near of one of the best cities of Italy (Florence, the jewel of Tuscany and Italy too) make it be a perfect mix between quite life and culture.
    I have two cats and three dogs, but I ask help only for the cats and maybe one of the dogs and to sitting and manage the house when I'm absent. The others I can manage by myself or other ways. The cats are adult, are a male and a female, and are so shy, so they need only to feed them and take care of them. The dogs are 2 males and a female. The males are one Beagle 14th, one Labrador 6th, the old one is so excited, the ither is shy and feary. The female is a Spinone 6th and is shy and feary but so lovely. I ask help maybe for the labrador.
