I've had german shepherds for the past 3 years and had a lab a year before that. I have experience delivering oral and topical medication to even the most stubborn of dogs. I trained my shepherds to follow basic commands, good leash manners, and even self control (sitting and waiting for food, water, treats, or the door until I say so ect ) even some stuff just for fun(paw, other paw, hugs, give baby kisses, ect). I've always had the opinion that our pets are out family so I would love to help you feel at peace knowing that your pet is in good hands while your at work or on vacation. I can't wait to meet and work with you! Have a nice day!
