I have grown up having pets of all kinds. I have had fish, mice, hamsters, a chinchilla, a rabbit, dogs, cats, and a red-eared slider (who is still alive and kicking at 20 years old!); along with any found cat/dogs that we would find homes for. Currently, I have 2 pets - 2 old men. One is my cat (a Manx) Henry at about 13 years old and the other is my dog (an Old English Sheepdog) Riley at 11 years old. Riley is my special boy - he has one eye and has a couple issues (allergies, joint/disc, liver) that I have worked with to keep him puppy-like. I have over 10 years experience working in veterinary medicine - this has ranged from primary care to ER care. I also have experience walking and dealing with reactive or special needs dogs, such as those that are not fond of other dogs or require a muzzle.
