In order to best care for a dog, I would like to know about their energy level, if they have a typical routine, any commands they know, any known allergies or sensitivities they have, how well they get along with other dogs, whether they are known to become anxious when away from their people, if they have ever become aggressive, if they respond more strongly (in a positive or a negative way) to certain types of people, and anything else that seems pertinent for an individual dog. I would love to know what breed or mix a dog is, but have no preferences!

I love to explore new places to explore with dogs (or stick to what's known, if that's what a dog prefers!). I have a car, am a safe and responsible driver, and am happy to drive myself and furry friends to various dog-friendly parks, preserves, swimming holes, etc. Alternatively, exploring local areas within walking distance is great as well! Overall, I like to tailor my plans to what each dog and owner likes best, whether that's going for a run or long hike with an energetic dog, setting up puzzles or hide-and-seek games for a curious pup, or just keeping it calm and relaxed.
