I have taken care of numerous dogs in the clients' home...some very shy ..some aggressive .They all require individualized care. I think my extensive work with horses helps when working with dogs .I have a BS Degree in Animal Science from The University of Md. and worked with cows and pigs there and was on the equestrian team. Ofcourse, I have a black lab and kitties and have dog walking clients as well as train horses and farm sitt.
