From caring for new puppies to senior dogs, I have done it all. I grew up with border collies, so I'm accustomed to working with high-energy dogs, but also have extensive experience caring for calmer breeds. In addition to regular puppy training, I've done agility, therapy training, and canine nose work with various dogs. I've worked closely with special needs dogs with incontinence, complex allergies, and leg/foot injuries (among other things), and also have lots of experience walking and working with shy/timid dogs. I'm home full-time, so your pup won't be alone when s/he stays with me. All dogs that stay with me have full access to my fenced-in backyard, and go on 2-3 walks per day. In addition, I love bringing dogs hiking and to the beach!
