I have owned a dog or lived with dogs ever since I was a child. I have lived with small dogs, large dogs, happy dogs, grumpy dogs, and loved them all. I love to walk, hike, and trail run and would be happy to include your pup as mine is too old to participate. I can pick up dogs (or cats) in my wagon and keep them safely contained in the back on the way to the park or the trail. Muddy paws are the best paws, but I will make sure the animals are cleaned up before they head home. I am experienced in animals with special or restricted diets and have been successful giving oral medication and ear drops. I love to cuddle and play with all animals.
