Taking the best care of yo fur baby
Pet care experience
I have been working with/training dogs & training horses for over 20 years now. Working with animals is always something that has come natural to me & I can't imagine doing anything else. I currently have the most amazing 2 year old Belgium Malinois/GSD. (River) She has taught me so much about life this last year. She's made me a better trainer & continues to push & challenge me to learn more each day. I also have a 1 year old male Cane Corso (Mountain). I've known him since birth & River has been helping me raise him since he was 9 weeks old. He's been the perfect addition to our pack. I started training dogs when I was 13 & I realized I had a natural gift for it. My neighbors growing up would ask me to watch their dog or walk their dogs & I even trained a few of my neighbors dogs. Which is the first time I began to realize this was something I was not only good at but that I LOVED to do. I spent years studying & learning about how dogs learn, behave & interact with each other. I wanted to understand them more. (Their pack instincts & such) All of this research has helped me understand how to teach many different kinds of dogs in all kinds of areas.
Reviews
Always quality. I love the pictures. Training tips are very useful.
Goes above and beyond expectations.
The best every day.
Felt updated regularly and came home to a happy puppy!

I have a HUGE fully fenced in back yard. I have an 12 year old amazing boxer/lab who helped train & teach my Malinois how to be a good canine citizen & now they are both continuing to teach my Corso how to be a canine gentleman. So now I have some amazing dogs who do a really good job of welcoming any dog into their home and making them feel right at home.
Information Alycia P. would like to know about your pet
It's very important that I know about any special needs or behaviors that your dog may have so I can meet those needs or be aware of the behaviors.
A typical day
Because I have such a large yard, it's great for playing fetch and going out to run and play with my other dogs. It's about the size of some dog parks and the dogs love exploring all the different terrains I have. I also have a flirt pole that I use to play with and mentally stimulate the dogs. I also have a room that is used for the dogs and has a doggie door that has access to the back yard.

Training dogs is what I do for a living right now & i work with my own dogs every day and keep them well trained, behaved and ready for any dog friends to come visit. I'm available pretty much 7 days a week. (Give or take) Caring for pets is just something I've always done & I can't imagine myself doing anything else.
