I have a dachshund, 7 years old, who has helped me learn to appreciate the craft of raising a thriving and happy dog through praise and treats! I am also a foster Dog-Mom and love providing dogs a loving, safe temporary home before they find their forever home! I have experience with medical issues (my dachshund has a bad back), as well as timid dogs (helping with transitions for foster dogs!) if i could i would probably own a big plot of land and save all the animals i can! Hehe! I know it can be hard to give your 4-legged family member the attention they need, and would be happy to help with whatever needs you may need to help make things easier and more enjoyable for all involved!
