Hello! I have had dogs my entire life, and consider myself a major animal lover! I am patient, loyal, and available anytime! I currently have an eight pound shih tzu who I had potty-trained within 3 months. I believe that how a dog looks and acts, tells you a lot about their owner. I also have amazing character references! Several years ago, I found a puppy by a trash dumpster. He was, at first, seemingly vicious and growling at me. After feeding him some treats and bringing my golden retriever outside to slowly warm up to him, we brought him inside my home, and within a few hours, he was happy,loving, and running around my my dogs. It was a wonderful experience that I could change him from vicious and scared, to being happy and playful.
