Hi there! My name is Liz, and I'm a freshman in college. I have a mini labradoodle of my own named Landry, so I am very familiar with the breed! We take him on daily walks, so I have leashes, harnesses, and other materials I can provide. I absolutely adore all animals, so this would be the opportunity of a lifetime for me!
