All dogs deserve to be cared for by someone who is attentive to their needs and understands how to keep them healthy and happy. I grew up breeding purebred dogs and caring for them from birth through old age. I love off-leash woods and beach walking, working on skills and training, and practicing good manners with four-legged friends! No dog is allowed free reign of the household--I provide love and boundaries, along with everything else your dog needs. We have a five-year-old 20 lb. Australian Terrier, Hatchet, who loves everyone and everything (except for fireworks on the fourth of July). He makes friends easily and sets a strong example of good behavior. His favorite game is tug-of-war. I have a flexible schedule most days and can work around what you need.
