I do have a few stipulations, aggression being the biggest one. I can handle almost any situation but I won't take an animal aggressive or human aggressive dog out for walks except for potty breaks. Depending on the situation I can change up my techniques and work with them in the home or yard to make their experience with me better for both of us. Some pets just need the extra time to get comfortable with me and being in a new situation. I never mind taking the extra time with those individuals. I also have a check list of things I will go over with you to be sure I understand all Their likes and dislikes. I also require that they have all their vaccinations, heartworm and fecal tests. I will need to know of any medical conditions or allergies they may have; so that if there ever is a problem I know what to look for in case medical intervention is ever required. A list of any medications they may take on a regular basis is also important. That's when me having experience in the veterinary field comes in handy; I not only know what the medicine I'm giving them is for, but also what side effects to watch for. I even do insulin injections!

I live on 5 acres in Wright City, MO so I do a lot of leash walks to explore the property with my dogs. If you have a senior dog or a disabled dog we would be doing more couch surfing and snuggling than playing fetch. For the more active guys I have a lot of indoor space at the shop to play fetch with them. I don't let any dogs run outside without a leash for safety reasons but we do a lot of outside leash walks ( 4 to 6 short walks a day).
