I grew up taking care of dogs, so I've learned some useful skills in dog care. I've raised 5 dogs and have provided shelter for at least 3 dogs. Most of my experience is with smaller to medium sized dogs, but I'm more than willing to take care of a bigger dog. I have managed to teach most of my dogs the basics commands such as sit, stay, down, and jump among other tricks and I'm still learning how to teach more tricks. With my experience in dog care, I have learned that every dog learns at their own pace and sometimes I have to be the one to adapt to the dogs behavior to better care for the dog. Overall I believe dogs are special and should be treated as such.
