I love to constantly engage your dog or cat. I am someone who enjoys chatting with animals, even though they obviously don't respond with words. When I am around dogs, I include them in what I'm doing. I like longer walks, and I like to run or jog with dogs, too. I am pretty strict about good behavior and will gently, but firmly remind your dog about manners. I expect them not to drag me down the road or trail on walks. Despite my desire for good manners, I do enjoy cuddling with pups on the couch or in bed. I also enjoy brushing and grooming dogs. I believe in walking dogs in bad weather because dogs need to be cared for whether the sun is shining, or not. I have a soft spot for cats, particularly feisty ones and have a lot of experience fostering kittens for rescue groups. I am an avid horse woman as well, and I specialize in working with "problem" horses.
