I have never been without a dog. Growing up we always had dogs and now that it’s our own home we have 2. I have gone through extensive dog training focusing on confidence building, anxiety and socialization. I love dogs and the commitment and joy they bring. Currently I’m a graduate student in the evenings and stay at home mom in the day. Our kids are at school weekdays while I’m home playing with our own pups and ready/studding for my masters in psychology. We live on a .25 acre lot, newly fenced backyard with tons of room to run and play. We have a 6 year old red heeled mix who is the grandpa of the two and likes to play on and off, but often just likes to keep watch and sleep on the couch. Our youngest pup is a black lab dachshund mix of all things, and just turned 2. She is blind in one eye, but even with no real depth perception no one catches a ball mid-air quite like her.
