  Descrição

  We are Americans retired and we have a big house with lots of dogs so... you could say we are a dog house.... . We have quite a few dogs 14 to be exact for this month and they are noisy, so if barking bothers you,, this is not the place for you...we are working on training and obedience . My husband and I are young at heart, but retired and love to enjoy life. We have a lot of wonderful sites nearby. PumaPungo Museum, Cuenca a historical city, Turi, Tarqui, Banos hot springs, Chordeleg (silver jewelry).. so much for a day trip.. Come and enjoy and help us train the pups. We have also a need to learn Spanish, we are looking for an hour a day of Spanish to help us get along in our retirement. We offer a private room with bath for one person ,, or a co-shared room bath for two... we work here 8 hours a day. Sometimes it is just being with the dogs, other times it is brushing, walking and training. We are asking that if you are afraid of dogs,, please don't apply for this hosting.. we need people who are familiar with dogs. This is for your protection and the dogs ease too. We reserve the right to terminate this arrangement if we think it is in the animals best interest and to protect our workawayers as we have large dogs.
  
  Sincerely,
  Denise and EdGar Toepel

  Ajuda

  We rescue street dogs and could use a little help around the grounds we clean the compound often and house cleaning along with help training. We are working on our spanish, so a little help with that would be helpful also. No.. a lot of help! You will be paired with a dog while you are here. Be aware,, they may love you.. or totally ignore you,, it is up to you to make them like you. The day begins early and ends early in the afternoon. We are working on making the bodegas more comfortable,,,on going project. After the dog walks.. then it is un-wind time.

  Algo mais...

  We are a 20 minute and 30 cent bus ride (bus 100 from terminal terestre) to Centro de Cuenca where there is so much to see and do. We are very close to town, Pumapungo and Ingapirca archeological ruins, Chordeleg a city known for its silver jewelery, Banos a thermal therapy town. We relax and enjoy life but work to better the lives of street dogs that are lucky enough to share our home.
  You will work with them all.. even the blind ones.. to make them all adoptable or at least more livable with us.
