Let me start off with, I love animals! Dogs just happen to be a favorite. I've had my current dog, an Australian cattle dog named Owen, since he was 8 weeks old. He is now 9yrs and you wouldn't know it with how playful he can be! With him being a high energy breed, it took a lot of training, patience, and consistency to get him to where he is today. I've gone through many stages to include, potty training, crate training, house training, obedience training, and the dreaded administering of medication. Anyone who has met Owen will tell you what a good boy he is!
