I have owned dogs for 20 years and I have taken them to dog parks, walking, to rivers and even to San Francisco. I'm pretty much flexible on my hours and I'm also good at giving them massages if they get anxious. I will give them unconditional love. I see them as family instead of a pet. When I was a child, my parents didn't allow any dogs and I have always wanted one. When I moved to California I lived in apartments so I wasn't allowed to have a dog. When I was 35, I finally owned my own place and the first thing I did was adopt a dog from the shelter. I appreciate them more since I had to wait so long to get one. I will never take them for granted.
