I believe that dogs are family members and should be treated with love and respect. I would treat your dog like one of my own and make sure their needs are met. Positive reinforcement is my method of training. I have 5 dogs ranging from 4 months - 10 year(s) old. They range from high energy to moderate energy. They are all well adjusted to leash walking and socialization. I take them for walks, daily, and strive to keep them active. Two are currently enrolled in formal training classes which helps me, as an owner and handler, learn how to better read and understand all types of dogs. My caring, friendly personality translates to positive energy that, I believe, dogs respond well to. I hope to meet your dog soon!
