Thank you for your time. I am a big animal lover I have been around dogs and cats my entire life. I have been around all types of dogs. From a yogi, Grant Danes, Grenan Sheapers, labs and boxers. I am good with dogs from walking, playing, brushing and the occasional bathing. I find that all dogs need some TLC wether young or a senior everyone gets their special attention to make them happy and relaxed. I believe that dogs need to use the bathroom like humans, potty breaks are done around every 2-3 hours. Getting exercise and energy out is very important. Since I enjoy walking a lot I say why not bring the dog with. The walking distance will always depend on the dog and what they can handle. High energy dogs will go for longer walks or even to the local dog park to socialize with other and to run freely within the dog park limits. Any questions please feel free to ask! Thank you Nicole
