Hi there! I've grown up around small and medium dogs. I've seen all sides, my mother raised rowdy Chihuahuas, (so I raised mine with manners in pure spite :D) and was taught by my grandmother to care for Schnauzers from puppies to passing. I've taken care of three generations of dogs, all various rescues from adoption centers, and I raised my girl, Chicken, since she was just 6 weeks. If you want proof of animal caring look no further than her, she's a loving Chihuahua, trained to be off-leash, and extremely well behaved, and we'd both be more than happy to meet you first before you decide to hire me, if you wish! Also, I like making little snacks for my dog, and I'll share with yours too if you are fine with it! Usually just simple thing, like some eggs or some chicken bites, but I've been known to make homemade doggie meatballs and other various treats for special occasions!
