What's up dog?

Woody was my first dog I got after moving out of home. He was a surrender in 2021 and when I first met him I wasn't sure it was meant to be. I went back to see him again and we gelled straight away. He came home with me 2 days later and we've been inseparable ever since. Woody is as smart as it comes and is the most socially aware dog I've ever lived with. He's extremely gentle with all other animals like cats and birds (and even rats). Woody is now 3 years old and come to work with me at a doggy daycare. He's opened up my world and inspired me to study canine behavior and training. My best friend never had an interest in dogs but Woody was adamant to convince her of their greatness and now she's had a dog of her own for over a year. Woody really is an old soul with the young soul spunk still creeping through occasionally. He's made my life complete
