I have had dogs all my life. My parents had a dog when I was born and have had several since then. I myself have a dog (Bowie) who is 4 and a cat (Beatrice) who is almost 7. I take my dog for several walks a day, play with her constantly and, try to go to Central Park with her at least 3 times a week. I love animals so much and think they deserve love and care to the highest level possible. I am able to administer health care minimally for pets. My experience with this comes from my animals growing up as some had health issues and part of my responsibility was giving them medication orally. I wouldn't mind doing more than that since it is for the betterment of your dog :)
