Hi Im a ! Big animal lover trying to save up money because I am , starting vet school soon. I worked as an assistant groomer so we k can bathe your baby for free. We have 2 dogs they are super nice but they have their crate in their room so they can be separate from yours if thats what you would like. I dont have a back yard but our apartment complex has a big off leash gated park ! So if your dog enjoys making new friends i can take him there ! Me and my husband can also teach them a few tricks , like sit , lay , shake paw ,& teach them not to pull on the leash . I can assure you your dog will love us .
