Hi there!
I love dogs of all sizes and personalities. I have a coton de tulear and walk him religiously.
I grew up with a Maltese and enjoy watching, walking and playing with dogs.
When asked, "are you a dog person or a cat person?" My answer is always: yes. As in, why do we have to choose? I would love to help keep your furry friends happy, active and socialized. Whether it's going for an active and smell-rich walk or just sitting quietly to bring comfort to a shy companion.
