I've always grown up around animals. specifically, I have a great amount of experience with dogs. Ever since I was a teenager, I would volunteer at local shelters. Also, I have a close family member who owns a grooming store. With that, I've been taught how to approach new dogs, and properly clean them (cut nails, brush teeth, bathe). In addition to have hands on experience, I've personally watched dogs in my home town. This includes over night watches, quick feedings/ walks. Also, it's important to note that I've interacted with all types and sizes of dogs. long haired, short haired, buff dogs, skinny dogs, shy dogs, energetic dogs, older dogs, and even puppies.
