Hi there, I've had dogs almost all my life and have trained them to do everything from kiss, hug, close the door from behind me to get the leash, shoes, paper, etc. I have a strong instinct to protect and foresee problems before they happen. I'm pretty much retired but not quite yet ready to get another dog. My last dog passed about a year ago so I'm just needing more doggy energy in the house. I prefer dogs that are mostly trained and well-behaved. I like to run them in the park on my mountain bike or just chill and do walks. It's easy to do walks as the park is right out my door and legal to have dogs off leash under voice control...
