Hello! My name is Mary, and I would love to get to know your pup! I have had dogs and cats in my care throughout my life. Right now I am a doggy mom to my 2 large pups, Zoey and Cash. My husband and I adopted Zoey (a high-energy Labradoodle) at 4 months old, and I have personally trained her with positive reinforcement. She is my water dog who knows over 15 different tricks. We adopted Cash (a big wrinkly Shar Pei-Standard Bulldog mix) just over a year ago, and though he is less-motivated to learn new things, he knows the basics and is calm as can be. I have started taking Cash to nursing and assisted living homes as an emotional support/therapy dog. I also volunteer in my limited spare time at a local shelter, so I have gotten to work with dogs of all temperaments and demeanors. I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes, from a 5 pound poodle mix to 150 pound great danes. I have no problem giving medicines and following specific training instructions. I am glad to meet doggies of any kind!
