I love big dogs, I have lived with golden retrievers my whole life as well as dog sat for friends and family frequently. I know how to feed, give medicine (pills, not shots), and take care of dogs either full time or through hourly check ins. I can also handle more than one big dog at once, I did have two 100 pound golden retrievers after all. I love playing with dogs so I'm sure to tire them out by the time they get back if we're going for a walk. I'm perfectly fine brushing out fur too, I recommend a ferminator brush since it's summer. I don't bring brushes with me but I'm happy to use yours if you have them to clean out your dog's coat.
