Charlie is the biggest dog lover I know. Along with his tattoo on his wrist of his dog's paw print, he has a unique care and compassion for dogs that I have never seen in anyone else. He has worked with dogs ever since he was a little kid and knows everything from basic care such as feeding and letting out to discipline, caring for elderly dogs, and the best ways to play with them. I have seen him sit and play with or pet a dog for hours at a time and he is able to bring out the best in dogs, no matter what their manner may be. My dog is very skeptical around humans she is unfamiliar with, yet she loves him and was trusting of him very quickly. His calm yet playful nature along with his ability to discipline kindly is the perfect blend to care for any type of dog. He is athletic and your dog will probably tire before him. Charlie is a professional whose commitment to the canine community will be a great addition to your pooch's life and well-being.
