I've grown up around shih tzu breeding and have owned many cats. My mom had a dog that wouldn't come to anyone but when I'd sing to her, she would come and give me kisses. Did I mention I will engage your pet in conversation, song and play! I'm usually the lady at the party that ends up hanging with the pets:) I'm an avid ceasar Milan fan and believe in a calm yet engaging energy. I've cared for elderly pets with physical ailments and new born puppies. Each unique breed has its different needs, the husky needs to run and get all that energy out, the smaller dogs need it to but what they all need is affection and loving care... And maybe a parent approved treat 😉
