I've walked and cared for dogs in the city for 10 years and another 15 years in rural/suburban areas. I'm likely to find grass areas where most people wouldn't, and enjoy playing with dogs during walks. I'm also very good at keeping a short leash when around other dogs or people in confined spaces. I wholeheartedly love dogs, understand them, and want to entertain them as much as they entertain me. My last dog was a Miki named Gizmo who passed after a year of awful medical problems. Unfortunately, I had a lot of experience giving him drops, pills, massages, shots, and comfort as he fought on. One day (hopefully soon) I plan to pick out another fun-loving little critter to brighten my day when I get home, but for now I enjoy vicariously living through my friends animals and caring for them.
