I am a special education teacher with the summer off! I'm a very puppy and kid loving person. Before becoming a teacher, I worked in high end natural pet stores (2 of them) for 11 years! I have met hundreds of dogs through the years. I love all different types of dogs, and look forward to meeting many adorable babies this summer. I have two adorable dachshunds at home. Both of my dogs hate walks. They just lay down and wait for me to carry them. It's cool to walk with dogs who want to walk or run, but I know how to coax a non walking into walking as well. My sister in law is a vet tech so I have some random insight into special needs dogs.
