As a family, we have always had dogs which has given me endless happy memories throughout my childhood. Mainly they were larger breeds, such as two Dobermans, a Dalmatian, and now a German Shorthaired Pointer, so I am very comfortable with big breeds - I respect their size and grace, and the extra big cuddles they give! More recently, I have happily become the Auntie to a miniature Daschund too. Whatever their size, there is something about dogs that brings me comfort - during stressful times (particularly while training at the moment), all it takes is time with a dog to make me feel calmer. Even while doing the more effortful jobs, as I am the designated pooper-scooper! Having grown up in the countryside, my partner (Elliot) and I very much miss the company of animals and love any opportunity to look after or interact with one. A house is definitely not a home without a dog! With all of our dogs, I have been involved in plenty of puppy training, including our gun-dog trainer GSP. I understand the resilience, hard-work and patience it can take but the reward in the end is priceless. Whatever the breed, do drop me a message as I would love to help you out while also getting my furry fix!
