I grew up on a family farm with horses, dogs, cats, you name it. Birds even. I've helped raise puppies and kittens. I myself have two cats who just are super adorable and kind. Believe me. I've seen almost everything that can come out of an animal! I also reinforce training if you ask me to, I myself had trained my GSD puppy from the very beginning when I had him. I am patient and very clean and will do everything you ask for your puppy so that they can be as comfortable as they can while you're gone! I am used to dogs who pull and I have a strong grip. Dogs who don't behave well on leashes don't bother me. It is so important for them to be stimulated and sniff their environment! I let my animals on my furniture. But if you do not wish for your pet to learn to get on furniture I will enforce your wishes!
