Milo grew up with two dogs, Lucy the amazing yellow Lab, and Detroit, the English Shepherd. They were his pals and no one loved them or cared for them more than Milo. He helped with their care throughout their lives, with feeding, and walking and playing with those two. The dogs were family and Milo sat with them slept with them and loved them up. He was their rowdy playmate and sweet friend. His way of thinking about them was always with great care, gentleness and respect. It was lovely to see the bond he had. He has also had experience walking dogs caring for other pets. He does so from the same perspective. I suspect he does not feel such "work" is a job. It is so enjoyable for him-how could this be work? He can handle dogs on leash, with other dogs, and off leash. He is cool, calm and collected around the big animals we encounter from time to time in AK. He listens and understands that each pet has idiosyncrasies and can modify the way he handles the dogs for maximum safety. I would feel great if he were caring for my dogs.
