Dave never thought shift work was an issue until he got a dog. Then he realised quite quickly that his poor pooch Sascha was home alone all the time with no way to transport her to doggy daycare or the groomers, and ShowFur Around was born.
With a background in law enforcement, Dave is police-checked, qualified in animal first aid through RSPCA and trained in fear-free animal handling and dog behaviour.
As an emergency service worker in the past, Dave knows first-hand how difficult it can be to ensure your dog gets the attention and exercise s/he needs. Three years ago, Dave was introduced to his German Shepherd Sascha and realised he needed to provide more than just food and a place to lay her head.
After a career as a mechanic, Dave spent 17 years in state and federal policing and is trustworthy, transparent, caring and focused on ensuring your dog gets from point A to point B in comfort. Dave’s main focus is keeping you informed while keeping your dog comfortable. By taking photos at pick up and drop off and videos in between, Dave can be completely flexible, taking your dog where s/he needs to go.
No job is too big or too small. So whether you are a new mum who needs to have your fur baby dropped off at the vet, or a pensioner who doesn’t drive but wants to give your dog some social time at doggy daycare, Dave is there.
Specialising in dogs with anxiety, Dave is calm, competent and gentle. Add reliability and prompt service; you will understand why many people trust Dave to transport their dogs.
The yin to Dave’s yang, Sascha lept into Dave’s heart three years ago from a registered German Shepherd breeder in Gippsland, Victoria. A lovable, protective and easy-going German Shepherd, Sascha loves her treats, trips to the beach, scent games and playing with her favourite toys.
When you meet Sascha, you won’t be surprised to learn Dave decided to finish his police career to focus on caring for Sascha and other dogs around the greater Geelong, Bellarine and Surf Coast regions. Energetic, outgoing and fiercely loyal, Sascha stole Dave’s heart and is the reason why he wanted to help other dog owners transport their fur babies safely.
