It's important for me to know your dog's typical response to new people and how they behave outside of your home (if we'll be walking). For example, is your dog shy of new people? Does your dog tend to get wiggly or growly toward strange dogs during a walk? My own dog has a very high prey drive, so I have experience managing that type.of special need, such as avoiding a certain street or being aware of the situation for details that can be triggering. It's also helpful to know if your pet can have treats because sometimes that's a great way to help a shy pet warm up.

I enjoy walking no matter where it is. Being outside is pretty much my favorite thing. I'm also willing and able to work on any skills you're training, like loose-leash walking or door manners. I like to play fetch, tug, or disk with dogs, and enjoy playing with cats and their toys.
