I have owned, rescued and fostered many dogs over the last 25 years. My experience lies in many sizes and breeds. We currently have four dogs. "REIGN" and "RISKY" are our Belgian Malinois that my wife and I raised and trained from young puppies, "Gracie Lou" is my Australian Stumpy Tail Cattle Dog (Blue Heeler) who I also raised and trained from a puppy, and "Cosmo" is my 9 year old senior shepherd/labrador mix that we rescued at the age of 5. We affectionately refer to him as "Moo" because of the cow noises he makes. I have a special place in my heart for seniors and I have provided a loving home to several of them in their golden years. Dogs, like us, have personalities, quirks and mood swings. They can and will test us. My many years of experience and love for dogs gives me the patience and understanding to deal with difficult situations.
