I've had dogs since I was 7 and grew up with 5 siberian huskies, one of which I was solely responsible for, Maya. She was my first best fur friend. I had to ensure that she was fed, bathed, trained, etc. Maya was diagnosed with epilepsy at a very young age so I have experience with dogs who have medical issues and/or need extra care or medications. She eventually became a canine good citizen through several years of training and I used that to help with the training of Winston. Winston is my 3 year old Great Pyrenees weighing in at about 130lbs so I have experience with a wide range of sizes and temperments. Winston has some reactive tendencies which have prepared me for anything!
