Personally, growing up I have almost always had a dog. Now we have 2 dogs, a lab and Aussidoodle. I am no stranger to barking, jumping, and lots of energy. This last summer I dog sat a few times for 2 dogs that had both been rescues and with one having some triggers. I have always befriended almost every dog I've met.
