From the day I was born, I've always had a dog in my life! My family dogs have canine epilepsy so I'm very comfortable administering oral medication to dogs, even when they continuously reject it. In college I volunteered at the animal shelter to get my dog fix. I cont. volunteering post-grad before I had time for a dog of my own. I'm comfortable with all breeds and temperaments! I have open availability. I am skilled at getting nervous dogs to relax and trust me. I believe in positive reinforcement for dogs and will never hit or tug at them. I have experience with in house dog sitting for extended periods of time, dog walking, and training. Going on walks with dogs is just as beneficial for my health as it theirs :) I've had experience with many breeds, but more extensively: Labradoodles, Labrador Retriever, Golden Retriever, Shepherds, Chows, hounds, Cairn terriers, Yorkshire terriers, American Pit Bull, Boxer, Shitzu, Wheaten Terrier, Bichonpoo, King Charles Cavalier
