The best accessory to any outfit is a hair from a four-legged best friend. Since I was eight I took care of friends and neighbors dogs and houses. I have stayed and housesat for weeks at a time and have checked in on and walked dozens of dogs in the last year alone. I truly believe dogs are man's best friend and each has their own quirks and dispositions. I live with two dogs that are my main companions for both cuddles and hikes. I also realize that these magical animals are sometimes a handful and that is why managing time and priorities are important and necessary to provide a safe and enjoyable time for your dog. As a child ski instructor I have become efficient at quickly assessing situations and reacting in the appropriate way.
