Looking For Buddy Up

Me with My Dog

I'm looking for a dog friendly house for myself and my very well trained Border Collies; a home that's clean and comfortable. I am a semi-retired teacher of English which means my dogs are not left alone for long periods of time.
I'm also a senior examiner for a national examination board so I work online at home during May to July, August to September, November to December so internet connection is a must.
I would prefer my own bathroom but that Is just a bonus.
During the competitive show season in the spring and summer months I am away at weekends with the dogs, either Saturdays or Sundays or the whole of the weekend.
I'm very clean and tidy, I will treat the home with the utmost respect. I am currently privately renting in the north-east, so pics of the property would be very helpful before we meet up. I am from Southsea and would love to find a suitable home with one or two people. I have family living in Southsea and grandchildren near Guildford. I miss being able to visit them regularly.
I lead a fairly quiet lifestyle, but I do enjoy the occasional social activity, mainly cinema, theatre, dining out, or just meeting friends for coffee. I also attend obedience training classes. I'm an avid reader but also prefer the great outdoors.. i enjoy walking in the countryside and on the beach. I would be interested in renting a granny flat which gives me more independence. I have grandchildren in Surrey and would love to be closer to them. I I can supply honest and excellent references.
