I grew up with animals, and dogs my entire childhood. I was responsible for their care at a young age.. It included puppys, and adult dogs. I have bathed them, walked them, fed them, played with them, etc. Currently up to date, I have a medium sized german shepherd/pitbull mix and a small chihuahua mix. Both were puppys when I first adopted them. Caring for another persons dog will be second nature for me, because I have always connected with animals.
