Hiya, my name is Megan and I'm self-employed and would LOVE the excuse to get outside, walk, run or take a bike ride with your puppy! I grew up around a chocolate lab and cats and trained my dachsund professionally when I was 14. My husband and daughter are cat whisperers (I love them, too) and our family has loved and lost Carmelita the Pit bull and Gordo the Pug. Our only pet now is Kubo the Lynx Point Siamese and she's amazing. I love to socialize her with willing dogs and potentially other cats. Over the years of dog and cat ownership, I have come to understand and help treat separation anxiety, stress, aggression and neurotic ticks and if I had to summarize my cure-all for dogs (and humans), it would be GET OUTSIDE! Regarding taking your dog for a ride, it's only if you are comfortable. I have years of experience doing this with my pug, pit bull and friends dogs (Australian Shepherd siblings, Blue Healer) and can take dogs weighing 10lbs in a front bike basket to 150 lbs in an electric cargo bike.
