I once had a shy dog that wanted affection all the time but was too scared to do anything. I rescued him and little did I know how fearful of everything he was. With time and consistency he was able to build the confidence to actually be a dog! I have had dogs all my life and I've been able to fulfill the dog needs. With me not only will your dog be in good hands but he/she will be exercised and learn discipline while receiving affection from me.
