I’ve grown up with large-breed dogs; my love for them began with a massive Collie when I was a toddler, and has persisted through Great Pyrenees and my current Bernese Mountain Dogs. I’ve always loved interacting with dogs of all sizes; their energy and passion for the smaller things in life, like birds and squirrels, makes me appreciate and love them even more! I’ve trained my family’s pups, from ages 10 weeks to 10 years, and I enjoy using my experience training, sitting, and snuggling with CCI service-dogs to do the same with friends’ dogs. I love going on adventures with active pups just as much as I love cuddling on the couch with more relaxed dogs. I’m happy to take your pup on local excursions: walks, trips to the nearby dog park, etc., adapting to whatever behavior and training preferences you have. I would love the opportunity to be an extra set of hands to care for your pup and another heart to love them!
