Dogs feed off the energy of their walker! I'm always entering my services with an open mind and adapting to the energy your animal feels comfortable with. MadPaws bookings also helps me stay stress free and get my exercise in. I like to do a mix of playing, running, walking, giving scratches, and letting the animal make as many sniff stops and wanders as they please. A lead shouldn't crush their sense of curiosity! I have had animals my whole life, and I could not imagine one without them....
