Hello, my name is Shelby. I have had dogs all my life. I worked at a pet hospital for 4 years before going to school for Paramedic. I love all kinds of animals from dogs to horses to snakes. Working at a pet hospital has given my the background to give medications and understand dogs when they are stressed or frightened and how to calm them down. My parents have a Golden Retriever that I watch all the time and helped train. My sister has a Belgian Malinois/German Shepard that I watch also. I am comfortable with all kinds of dogs from Chihuahuas to Great Danes and everything in between. I treat every animal that I take care of as if it were my own.
