I've grown up with dogs all my life. Everything from toy fox terriers and pomeranians to great Danes and pitbulls, and I loved them all. But now being in the army I can't simply because I dont have the time or resources to raise them right, but I would gladly give yours as much time as i can. I've raised dogs from 9 weeks to adulthood with no issues. I'm caring and patient with all dogs but firm enough to not get bossed around. I've worked in shelters with dogs that very much did not like people so if I can earn their trust I'm sure me and your dog will get along fine. Hopefully you chose me. Thank you for your consideration -Jack J.
