I grew up where from the first day of my life I have been living with a dog. All my life I have personally owned Goldens but have experience with all different types of breeds. When I was younger I ran a successful dog walking service. This service brought together all different types of breeds and we had our circuit we went on about every day. Owning pets all my life has taught me a sense of responsibility and what it takes to make a dog happy. Each dog is different in its own way and deserves specific attention. I have also had a wide range of experience with multiple trainers as both a way of training my dog but also how to handle other people's dogs in a safe manner. Lastly, having had goldens retrievers my whole life I have learned the value of proper grooming. If asked I am capable of giving baths to your animal but also can do some light grooming such as brushing.
