i have been around dogs all my life... i have babysat for parents with dogs over the years...i have worked at a pet store that sold dogs for 2 years and vet clinic for a year and had to give oral and injected meds in the past...i havent done injections in a long time but if needed sure would be able to pick it back up with ease... i have had a few dogs over my life from little bitty dogs to big dogs love them all...i dont currently have a dog of my own because my apartment doesnt allow dogs over 20lbs and i prefer big dogs...have experience potty training and with basic command training...i have 2 girls that also love dogs and if watching in your home would have to be able to come with me and will give your dogs so much extra love and playtime
