I grew up with animals and learned a lot about understanding their wants and needs. Currently I only have one German shepherd pup, but growing up I had 7 dogs, 16 birds, 3 rabbits, a turtle, a cat, and a few fish. Needless to say, it was a bit chaotic, but a wonderful experience that has taught me a lot about dogs. Each dog is unique in the way they must be approached. Whether they are the alpha of the pack and demand your respect or they bark and bite cause they are actually afraid. I am willing to take the time to get to know your dog and make sure they feel safe and loved.
