Dogs make sense to me, people..?

Pet care experience

I've been involved with dogs since I was 7 years old. I helped raise hunting dogs. Owned my first dog at age 9 and now hacve a 1.5 year old Texas Heeler, a 3 year old Leonberger and an 8 month Old Southern White American bulldog. I absolutely love dogs! I have studied to be a vet tech and have interest in expanding my dog walking in the area. I am passionate about dogs and have always had a natural talent working with them. I am looking at dog training ultimately as a career and hope to build a customer base up starting with dog walking and in home care. I graduated from Globe University with my Associates degree in Business Administration. I am very trustworthy and honest. I prefer positive reinforcement with pets and people. Please allow me the opportunity to walk your dog and help me reach my goals as well!I have lots of experience with power breeds and unruly dogs. I have yet to meet a dog I can't walk. I've successfully walked many dogs I was told would be difficult and had no trouble at all. I also do nail trims, I have a set of trimmers. That's an option we can talk about if are interested or you just want to have a trim for your dog. I trained my dog basics as well as touch, paw, roll over, spin, speak, play dead and whisper. As well as our otherdogs the basics and leash msmners. There is potential to do some training if you like. I use positive reinforcement and a reward system for training. My regular job hours are m-f 8-5pm, I am available after. Feel free to contact me if you have any questions.

Alissa was great with our brand new puppy! Puppies are lots of extra work and we are so thankful Alissa was up for the challenge.

Information Alissa D. would like to know about your pet

I prefer to know their temperament. I don't have a breed preference, I've handled many power breeds such as Pit bull, Boxer, Husky, German Shepherd and a Tosa Inu. I've handled hound dogs such as Black and Tan, Plotting, Bluetick, Running Walkers, Bloodhound and Mountain Cur. I like big dogs, I cannot lie, but I have no issues with any size.

A typical day

I take my own dogs to the dog park, hiking in the woods and walk around town. My Texas heeler is learning how to catch a frisbee and use communication buttons. I can meet each individual pet's needs for activity, medication, bathing, nail trims, leash training, basic commands and possibly more. You let me know what your comfort level is and I would love to assist. Your dog will be treated as my own pet with the care they will receive.
