Hi there, I’m Tara! I’ve raised, loved, trained, and worshipped two beautiful dogs, and think a household absent of an animal is missing an essential growing experience. I think the feelings and needs of an animal can be explicitly perceived, as long as we are open to listening to them! Animals can understand us, so engaging is really important. They need to be listened to and respected, as well as healthily, gently disciplined when necessary, and never made to feel like they are unsafe in your presence. I hope to create a safe, loving atmosphere for your family member. I have a flexible schedule and am open to help with training if need be, and as an athlete can run outside with your dog if it needs or likes extra exercise!
