Hello! My name is Alyssa! I have a 1.5-year-old dog named Leo! He's an English Black Lab and a little beefcake! Leo's my first puppy so naturally, it's now his world and I'm just living in it. I've always loved dogs though! In fact, I grew up around dogs my entire life! We had 6 amazing family dogs growing up (Alaskan Malamutes and Siberian Huskies)! My dad taught me at a very young age to observe dogs and their behaviors, mainly for safety reasons, and it's something I still take seriously and have a lot of experience in! So, I find it easy to connect with dogs and love making them feel safe, happy, and content! Dogs are so awesome. And hey cats are too!
