About: I have grown up with dogs and rescued my big hunk of love Leo. I love dogs of all sizes, breed and ages and cats as well. I actually like dogs more than people. I also am a cute cat lover too! I have two black beauties that love to snuggle up but also play when they are feeling up for it. I have a pretty flexible schedule as I am a personal trainer and I teach fitness classes so I don’t have a typical 9-5 job. Feel free to ask questions. I crate my dog when I am at work. He loves going in it and waits for me to shut the door every morning before I leave.
