It requires a lot of work so unique situations at home are not lost on me. I’m very passionate about working with my dogs I take them on three to four walks a day on our property and most of which are separated so I get 12k steps a day just looking after our crew. I have a remote job which allows me to be home with them. Thankfully this year my wife will also be remote which allows me some time to look after your pets with her being home more.
