I grew up with miniature Schnauzers so I know how to take gentle care of the small loving dogs. And when I lived in California, I worked at a doggy day care that allowed dogs up to 100 lbs. On top of that I have had a husky, one of her most stubborn breeds, so I am able to handle all forms of dog personalities. I am a long distance athlete so I love having a dog to go run with and keep me company. Dogs gives unconditional love and it is just amazing to have that around. I look forward to getting to know your dog!
