I have had all sorts of reptiles and amphibian for over 30 years I did demonstrations on the various creatures while in high school and after. I cannot even list the amount of species but everything from giant lizards and snakes to large arachnids and the ever picky poison dart frog. Owning reptiles and amphibians led into owning and breeding feeder mice and rats. I have had hedgehogs, ferrets, rabbits, hamsters & etc for rodents. I had an intact female Chocolate lab and a spayed cock-a-poo in childhood throughout adulthood and currently have an intact female Dobermann. She is heavily trained and is training for the AKC CGC she is a service dog but we are introverts and are not in public much. I have had cats as well as birds but with less experience. I am a true animal lover and I'm loved by animals. I hike my dog everyday for an hour as well as shorter morning, noon and evening walks in neighborhood. I crate trained my dobie, and trained her to retrieve my medicine, alert invisible attacks (asthma, panic, & anxiety) in people, as well as off-leash obedience, and basic obedience. I do such training first with positive reward (treats) then switch to mixture of treat and excited compliments, then I just compliment so the dog understands good behavior is expected not just to behave or act well for a treat. I have cared for or fostered Huskies, Shepards, Cane Corsos (Mastiffs) and Pitbulls and can handle the larger working breed mindset. I've dealt with Houdinis, runaways, destroyers, paper/cotton/object eaters and the nosey pup that just sifts through anything when lose. I also have knowledge on sensitive diet dogs and food allergies in dogs. In addition I know a bit about essential oil remedies for dogs, and natural remedies for dogs, as well as when it's time to go to the vet. I cured Kennel Cough (dog cold) by serving the dog hot tea with honey, lemon, and ginger and a little CBD oil. But healthcare is owners preference and respect all owners wishes. I am proficient at wound cleaning and wrapping from my active and sometimes clumsy dog who ruins her pads often. I have dog CPR and know how to handle emergencies well.
