Grew up with a Beagle-Basset hound of my own (Miss you Hector!). Currently help take care of two rescue dogs (that live at my girlfriends house), and enjoy and understand all of the quirkiness and craziness that comes with being a canine. Wen't through professional training with the two rescue dogs (They now act like little soldiers!) we have and I have had ample experience dealing with dogs of various breeds from diverse backgrounds. I love doggies and appreciate the unique personalities that each one of them possess. For a dog owner, your dog is your child and means the world and that is something I understand 100%. I am a part time graduate student who loves to travel, experience different foods & cultures and loves meeting people (and dogs) from around the globe!
