Presley is my 7-year-old Treeing Walker Coonhound/American Foxhound mix. We adopted him when he was around 4 months old. In his early years, Presley was full of energy, which required training, patience, and dedication. I've also taken care of my sisters' dogs, including Sosa, an energetic Pit Bull, and Mel, a mix of boxer and bulldog (both rescue dogs). Mel had a very difficult early life, which shows with his scars and nervousness, but has come out of his shell a bit with the help of Presley. Although I'm allergic to cats, I am still willing to drop in and play/feed/care for them, as I did with my sister's cat, Hunny Bunny, while she goes away each year for her week-long vacations. My best friend growing up had many dogs, including a Border Collie, Golden Retriever, Great Pyrenees, and Newfoundland, that I enjoyed spending time with. We've always had dogs in the household growing up, including 16-year-old Chico the Chihuahua. My other best friend's family trusted me to watch their 3-month-old Cocker Spaniel, Benny, for the week in their home while they were on vacation. Our family has also trusted us to watch their hound, Molly, and lab, Bella, for a week and weekends while they were on vacation as well. I am dedicated to meeting every pet's needs, prioritizing their well-being, and treating them with the same love, patience, and care I give to my own furry companion!
