Safety, trust & environment

I have extensive experience walking "difficult" dog, who is large, easily distracted, and loves to pull. With the help of professional trainers, I've learned how to productively walk my own giant puppy, so I am not only experienced in dogs that have big personalities, but I also know how to help build good habits. Additionally, my puppy loves to put anything and everything in his mouth, so now, I am always on the lookout for trash to avoid in order to keep him safe, and I will do that for any clients' dog as well.

Information Vivian C. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any behavioral needs, especially if they are reactive/big feelings towards other dogs. This way, I can make sure to avoid interactions that will stress your pet out and reward calm behavior.

A typical day

With my big puppy, our day consists of lots of mental and physical exercise. Of course, Mango likes physical exercise more than training, so I make sure that he gets sufficient running, playing, and digging time all while making sure he does so safely, as he is a growing puppy. When I go to the park with Mango, he is always kept on a long flexi-leash, as his recall is not good, and I do not want to risk his or others' safety. Mango also gets a pup cup every now and then!

Pet care experience

I am currently the primary caregiver for my huge (90lb) 8 month old puppy, who I have had since he was 3 months old. I am experienced with puppy behavior and positive reinforcement techniques, as I have been the one training my dog. I grew up with a shi-tzu, and now have a staffy/husky mix, so I am comfortable with both big and small dogs!
