Dogs love me and I really don't know why. They naturally somehow gravitate toward me and I enjoy that! " ... my dog doesn't usually like strangers..." - I get that a lot. I trained two of my own from puppies. I enjoy being around animals. I feel I have enough love in my heart for more dogs. I like being outdoors, walking around , staying active. I personally have a very active and very fun Shorkie-Tzu (Yorkie - Shih-Tzu hybrid) who I may even bring if it is appropriate for a play date or walks. I feel that I have a certain empathy for dogs, I feel that I understand them. I am available from the afternoon to the evening. I hope to arrive at an arrangement that will be mutually beneficial.
