Dogs have been a part of my life from an early age, and I've held a soft spot in my heart for dogs for as long as I can remember. I have experience with a wide range of breeds, ages and temperaments, and am comfortable handling difficult dogs and/or rescue dogs, thanks to a stint of volunteering at a local shelter. I have a very flexible timetable, and relish going for walks with canine pals! I currently live with my partner and four guinea pigs, in a semi-detached house with an enclosed garden, very close to Alexandra Park or Platt fields Park, which means plenty of wonderful walks and I also have access to a car. In the past I have trained my own dogs to compete in agility and fly ball competitions, winning a few prizes here and there. Through this I believe I have the patience to work with most, if not all breeds, and understand their capabilities. I am a patient and lively person who throughly enjoys the company of dogs.
