I have been raising and training dogs for many decades. All of my dogs have been or are rescues and in some cases from truly horrific circumstances. I have taken many of my dogs through CGC (Canine Good Citizen) certification. And, I am a super good snuggler (and walker) and I believe in giving lots, and lots, and lots of love, dogs really need it when their owners are away. I have a great deal of experience with large (and super large) dogs and I have a calm demeanor which puts dogs at ease in my presence. I would love to love your dog!! Recently, after I have moved from Montana to Lakeport, CA after caring for a sick relative and now I'm anxious to ease your mind and care for your pet here.
