I have had a couple different dogs over my life time. Currently, I have three rescue dogs. One is a 7 pound chihuahua that my wife and I rescued from a shelter. She was sick at the time and we nursed her back to health. Another is a 14 pound chihuahua that I saved from getting hit by a car. I trained her to follow certain commands. Most recently, I adopted a 40 pound Australian Cattle Dog. I am working on training him now. I have special skills with rescue dogs and know how timid they can be with strangers. I also have experience with all dog sizes as well and know how to handle a leash with any type of dog.
