I grew up with dogs, mainly collies, on a farm in Ireland, so dogs have always been a huge part of my life. I previously owned a very energetic and playful Springer Spaniel since he was eight weeks old, as well a wonderful Whippet, adopted when she was around two years old, and it was so rewarding to see her develop into the amazing dog she was. Both dogs have now sadly passed and I do hope to get another dog at some point in the not too distance future. Dogs really make a house a home and their unwavering loyalty and unconditional love is quite special, not to mention the individual little quirks that make them so unique and a joy to be around. Whilst I don't have any pets in my home at present, I am happy to look after other dogs and will always treat them the same care and attention that I would give my own. In addition, I am about to complete a Level 3 Diploma in dog grooming which I am really enjoying. I am also trained in Canine First Aid.
