Federal K9 Handler / Army I Veteran

Pet care experience

I've always grown up with dogs, however I've been to 5 k9 handler schools. After the Army I became a federal k9 handler so I could continue to serve and what's better then working with a dog. Now it's time to serve my family and be home. So come join the family, and trust some one who will give your dog 100%. I have experience with Belgian malinois, gsd, gsp, and everything in-between. I go into work at noon - 1pm till 8pm, this allows me to spend time with your companion and get a great walk in. Then my wife will be home at 5pm. Any pet that comes into my home will be treated as my own. Never dirty, constantly exercised, bathroom breaks offered regularly. Also I never will allow your best friend to be left out when we are not home. I beleive in kenneling our dogs if we aren't home purely for safety. I look at dogs just like I would children, be fun, structured, and always put them in a position to be successful and safe!!

I have worked with Josh for many years. He is an amazing handler and trainer. Working with dogs, especially working lines, is an obvious passion of his. He takes his job and the care of animals seriously, and only wants the best for everyone involved.

Josh is a caring and educated person who had a passion for animals and who can also train dogs. I have personally watched him train dogs and it is remarkable. I would highly recommend him.

Information Josh & Loren P. would like to know about your pet

As much information as possible! What does their day to day look like? What do they love and hate? What is it you are really looking for to make your companions stay as relaxed and fun as possible? Do they need to be kenneled in a room alone, or maybe they need their food mixed with alittle water? What ever it may be let's have a discussion, nothing is to complicated or silly!!

A typical day

Ill let them go out then we all eat breakfast and take a nice walk before it's hot out. Then relax and get some cuddle time in before we go outside and burn some energy. Then I will kennel them up, and shower for work, letting them out individually to get 1 on 1 time to bond before heading out. The wife shortly will get home and let them out to have a potty break. She will feed them each inside their kennel like I do offering fresh water as well around the clock. Once I'm home ill take a small walk and let them burn some energy before bed. All dogs sleep in kennels, as it is safe and it offers them peace in a new environment.
