All my life growing up I have had animals living on my grandpa's farm my sister had her own boarding and breeding business with cocker spaniels and Rottweilers and I used to assist her in administering medications helping with births and bottle-feeding if necessary. I'm not a professional groomer but I have no problem bathing and dogs. I understand that dogs need lots of exercise and play time I am a very active individual who loves to take dogs to the park and run with them and play fetch with them and I understand that some dogs may have special requirements when eating for example growing up my grandmother's Pomeranian I had to hand feed him or else he would not eat there was nothing wrong with her dog he was just one spoiled dog so I would have no problem giving special care and attention to your dog
