I've loved dogs my whole life! My family always had dogs growing up of all different sizes so I'm familiar with many different breeds. I got a Shepherd puppy when I was in 8th grade and we graduated from puppy school and he has always been complemented on his great manners! So I am knowledgeable on how to handle dogs. Unfortunately we just lost our Elderly Shih Tzu and my German Shepard lives with a good friend on the east coast. The last few years my cousin has been utilizing my love of dogs and I've watched her two larger dogs many times and she always says how much her dogs enjoy me and miss me when I'm gone and the feeling is mutual!! I really love and truly miss being around dogs and would love to help anyone out with theirs if I can!
