I love discovering a dog's unique personality in order to incorporate outings and play that allow them to express their best selves. I am the 'fun guy' that all my customer's dogs remember because I incorporate new and unusual experiences into their lives. I feel routine and consistency are necessary to establish trust in a pet. A trusting dog is more open to activities such as: on and off leash walks, bike rides, swimming, canoeing, hide and seek, obedience polishing, socialization, pet store visits, chin scratches, and belly rubs. I am caring, empathetic and kind. I see the value of personalized pet care over leaving dogs home alone. I believe in kind words and praise over domineering behaviors that would scare a pet into submission. I am eager to socialize and share adventures with dogs of all breeds and sizes. I love sharing dog stories.
