After I used to walk my dog, I used to brush them. I would use 2 items. One is a brush, the other is a comb like instrument. It gets a lot of fur. I can bring them if the owner wants that for their pet. I had a golden retriever. I tend to bring a towel to help dry them of if its raining. I also try to keep them entertained. I'll bring one their toys with them on their walk and use the toy to play with them. I find that helps to make the dog feel more comfortable with the care taker and helps to let me know their mannerisms. I'm available between 9:45 am and 1: 30 pm Monday - Friday.
