Some friends call me the dog whisperer lol - I've been surrounded by dogs and cats growing up. I've took care of my neighbors, friends, and family's dogs so many times - in addition of my 2 beautiful very disciplined Akitas that I trained myself. I have endless love for pets (specially dogs), and the connection is always mutual.
