I've had dogs in my life for 40 years. All sizes... l enjoy all aspect s of their care. And it seems I have a special touch when it comes to handling animals. I help my friends with their pets when it comes to trimming nails, bathing, grooming, things that they can't get their pets to let them do. I've been through several training classes with my own dog's and did very well. I make my own natural dog treats . I do work during the day but work close to home so it's a quick trip and I'm able to leave easily if needed. I've raised dachshund puppies for years so I'm experienced with all that goes along with that care. I've had several dogs that lived long, happy lives so I've dealt with all the senior dog issues ,too.
