Liam is so wonderful with dogs. I have a very large and intense golden retriever named Riley. Riley truly is just a big lover, but his size and excitability make him a little difficult to get to know. He howls and moans, we call it "singing," when new people come over and runs and jumps excitedly. Riley will force himself next to you because he just wants to be touched and loved. My family has learned a few tricks to get him to calm down, which he will obey only if they are used consistently. Liam was excellent at learning these and helping Riley become comfortable with him and keep his cool. Riley now loves Liam and looks forward to their time together. We have another dog, a King Charles Cavalier named Elmer, who is much more easygoing. He loves Liam as well and will fight for a spot in his lap. Liam is wonderful with dogs and incredibly responsible. I would absolutely recommend him.
