In the course of my life I have had four dogs. They were all very different but each played a special role in my life. My last dog, named Nikko was really a family member who always gave comfort and helped me during difficult periods in high school. Since leaving home I have not been able to have a dog (either because of rental restrictions or long term travel) but I would love to make new dog friends and provide support for humans who must attend to other tasks and cannot bring their love ones along. I am trying to establish a running routine, so I will also go running with your four legged friend! Indeed, I am very active, and I feel comfortable completing arduous activities with your dog. However, If your pet is into the finer pursuits of life (e.g. barely moving, snacks, watching squirrels from a distance), I also love to provide cuddles.
