Quinn has been around dogs his entire life. We had a pet dog when he was born! He would play with her quite a bit running around the back yard with her. Dipper-Doo was a lab mix. With our shelties, he learned how to use commands that he was taught to work with them and learned the do's and don't's of how to walk them, use commands to keep them in control and lovingly play with them. He always enjoyed having pets. Dominic B.
