Jeff is a natural with dogs, my dogs love him and so does every dog I've ever seen him with. He's been in many situations with my dogs - housesitting, beach, park, etc. and there's never been a problem or concern even though one of my dogs is leash-agressive. He's great at earning an animal's respect and keeping their attention, so I never have to worry about safety either. He's reliable and my dogs always come back absolutely beat.
