Hi my name is Emily and I'm new here on Rover! I've owned dogs my whole life and am very passionate about them. I've worked at dog daycares, a shelter, and an animal hospital. I am very fascinated by dog behavior and body language and how they communicate with us, which is why im working toward being a dog trainer. I have 2 family dogs, and 1 personal dog of my own. My fur baby is a one year old German Shepherd/Pharoah Hound Mix that I rescued at the shelter that I worked at. She is my life! I have a lot of experience with all different breeds, including breed characteristics, and health issues. I also have experience with grooming such as baths, nail trims, and ear cleaning. When I work with a dog I use positive reinforcement training and have a lot of success with it. I love all dogs any shape or size! I look forward to meeting you and your fur baby! Thanks
