Stewart is a devoted, active and very hands-on large breed dog owner who is intuitive with dogs, understands the importance of canine decompression, and employs proper introduction techniques when socializing dogs with each other. He is able to establish himself as the pack leader using kindness, consistency and assertiveness, as needed. Stewart is wonderful with my two medium-sized rescued dogs, one of whom can be dog selective on leash. As a dog lover, Stewart has fostered dogs for more than one rescue organization. All of his fosters developed confidence and trust under his care and guidance, and these dogs in turn were successfully placed into loving homes. When caring for your dog, Stewart will also respect your routine and care instructions since he is collaborative in nature. My dogs are akin to my kids, and I would entrust their care and well-being to Stewart without any hesitation.
