Hi there! We are the McCurdys. We have a dog named Ozzy and we love him to pieces. Both of us grew up around animals from a young age. I am from a rural area and I was constantly around animals: cats, dogs, chickens, hamsters, bunnies, cows, horses, etc. My husband grew up in more of an urban area but still had animals in the home. We absolutely love animals and we have loved having Ozzy! We are currently going through training with Ozzy and have learned many valuable lessons on how to handle and understand each dog. We have come to learn each dog is different and should be handled in a way that makes them most comfortable.
