Always patient and gentle, we love to get out and enjoy the sunshine while we play with dogs. As a mom of three teenage kids, I'm experienced in having fun while maintaining a safe environment. We never go into dirty or unsafe areas so we make sure to not get ticks or barbs. We recommend having a reflective vest for your doggie just like we do for our Golden retriever. We love the big smart dogs and like to reward them after the walk with a nice healthy treat. We are very protective when allowing them to greet other dogs while we're on our walks. We maintain a short leash and like to help train the doggies to walk beside us and not pull us along.
