I raised many dogs, most notably my 1.5 year old Vizsla, Nala, who is very high energy and an extreme cuddler. I will follow owner instructions to the last word as I understand how much dogs rely on repetition to minimize stress levels. I have also worked with all temperaments volunteering at my local animal shelter for 5 years. I have experience training puppies and young dogs so if you would like any assistance in this area I would love to help out. I have experience given medication as well, to both cats and dogs. I try to administer medication in the most delicate way possible. Having an elderly cat, I understand how frail animals can get. Ultimately, I believe love and patience is the key to doggie happiness.
