Pet care experience

Teacher looking to help!

Hi! I'm Dave and I have been walking neighborhood dogs for years. I currently have a border collie mix of my own and have fostered Border Collies and other breeds through Eastern Herding Dog Rescue, Blue Ridge Border Collie Rescue, and HART. I have watched a large variation of dog breeds from Rottweilers and German Shepherds to Yorkies and Min Pins. I really enjoy running and run most races with my dog; he is really fast. He has ran races from 5k's to half-marathons. My typical pet care routine with my dogs is a few miles of walking every morning followed by yard play and additional walks in the evening. I am a teacher and have summers and holidays off. I would love to help you out while I have this extra time at home! Please consider me to help care for the well-being of your pet.

I would like to know of any quirky behaviors your dog may have and if they have ever been aggressive towards any dogs/people. If they have any allergies. I am open to all dog breeds, I love them all.
