Hi, I’m Todd

I’m the “human” behind Sporty Dog Guide. I’ve been around dogs since I was an infant and have loved them all my life. I started this site to share my passion for dogs and to help others learn more about their own dogs, see what certain breeds do best and to find the finest gear for their four-legged friends. From our backyard in northwest Wisconsin, we thank you for stopping by!
