CARE OF DOGS,CATS,EXOTICS&LIVESTOCK
Pet care experience
My 12 years experience as a veterinary technician gave me the unique opportunity not only to learn how to care for dogs and cats but also exotics, including primates& wildlife. Of the 28 years riding and caring for horses, I trained professionally for about 15yrs and have run several ranches during those years. Most were equestrian facilities but I also have experience with cattle, sheep, goats, pigs, poultry, bees, Llama, alpacas, camels and even a few zebras! I specialize with rehabilitating/training horses with severe behavioral issues but also train dogs from working dogs and service dogs to rehabilitation of fighting/abused dogs so I will take on aggressive/special needs animals. Can give IV,Intramuscular&Subcutaneous injections&oral medications, check blood sugar, place catheters, express bladders, anal glands,trim nails, etc.

Information Lindsay M. would like to know about your pet
My main concern is the health and well-being of your critters so I will need to know any pertinent medical information such as any illnesses or conditions that will require nursing care and/or medications. Also, I would like to know about any behavioral problems or quirks about your individual pets, what works best for them and how you would like me to approach any possible issues (even if it's just about how you are house breaking your puppy...things of that nature). I love all animals and am quite familiar with a broad range of species. I do ask that you please be totally upfront with me about any potentially dangerous or aggressive behavior though so I can keep myself and your pets as safe and happy as possible.
A typical day
Depending on what you as the owner is comfortable with and what your furry buddies are accustomed to I will do my best to keep your pups happy, exercised and entertained during my time with them. Whether it's a nice walk, playing fetch, or possibly even a trip to the dog park or perhaps a swim at the beach or their favourite swimming place I am happy to tailor their activities to suit you and the individual pets needs. Also, if you have any horses that you would like exercised I am happy to discuss lungeing them, working them in the round pen or riding with you. I am also more than willing to discuss training for dogs and horses if that is something you might be interested in.
