About Richard

Experienced, enthusiastic friendly and fun. I took a canine training qualification and have started a qualification for doga with anxiety.I held a canine first aid certificate although needs renewing but I understand the basics. I can arrange walks either solo or with my mini-schnauzer for company. My home is safe and there is a small.outside space for play or desperate toilet needs.I live 5mins from Burgess park or 15 from a gated dog play area. Also there is Bruswick park very close and St.Giles church garden and gated area.If you have a preffered area I may be able to accomodate.

I borrowed dogs on borrowmydoggy for 4 years before i decided i was right to have my own.

I love making dogs happy and comfortable and if possible helping with training and catering for.theur needs especially socialising.I am fairly fit so can jog or run with dogs if necessary. I love all types of dog and can potentially arrange any type of recreation needed and could.also potentially take dogs further afield if they travel well on public transport or in a car.Potentially even short breaks out of the city.

I am aware of anxiety issues and can accomodate for most of these or possibly work on mild anxiety issues and helping dogs acclimatise to envionments they find stressful.

Skills

Specific Skills

I speak English
+5 years of experience
Familiar with dog training techniques
I have studied Canine Principles and passed level one exam and am now starting the module on anxiety. I have looked after many breeds including dogs with various issues including i socialised dogs. Fortunately my girl Stellar is also very good and sensitive to these issues. I have studied canine first aid and adapt my walks and care to the dogs needs as I usually only walk a max of 3 dogs at a time for bespoke care.
