“Excited to meet your pups!”

Hi! My name is Sarah. I grew up with several large dogs (German Shepherds) and was always comfortable with them. I currently have a working breed dog who is very protective and a smaller mutt who frequently pulls because he loves to sniff. I am able to keep both dogs on the trail/sidewalk, know when to keep a short leash and know when to keep my distance. I have a fanny pack with pockets for bags, a spot for a water bottle, and two D-rings to clip leashes to.
