First off, I love dogs! All dogs!!! Give me a dog and I’m in heaven and soon they will be too. My hands (which my Mother has repeatedly said were “modeling hands”) are primed to pet your furry li’l’ dudes and dudettes until their hearts’ content. I love going on walks (even without a dog) but I much prefer to have a canine companion along for the trip. I’ve trained and raised my childhood Labrador Retriever named Chessie and my adopted Miniature Pinscher named Achilles “Killer” until old age. I’ve fostered many pups, all with different special needs. Eddie the Jack Russell was abused and would pee everywhere and hide when ANY human entered a room. He was adopted when he became a much chiller dog after only a week! Luna a Pitbull/Rhodesian mix was nothing but skin and bones and her tail would spray blood everywhere like Mortal Kombat whenever she wagged it, after being in a confined kennel for too long. She is now all muscle, fur, and happiness in her new home! I’ve trained dogs young to old according to their owners’ various training philosophies. All my friends with puppers ask me to watch their dogs when they go out of town because they know I love them so much; they don’t have to pay me anything. I even walk dogs at my friends’ houses during parties and such- just because! A super weird quality in a friend, but a wonderful compulsion for your future dog-walker/sitter/best-friend! Let me make sure your pups is well taken care of when you can’t be there with them.
