I see animals as one of us; a person that can feel, sense, and show emotions just like any human. I have either taken care of my own pets or others' pets since I was a young child. I am both a dog and cat person! Plus, I am totally fascinated by and adore other pets, such as birds, mice, reptiles, and guinea pigs. I have trained small dogs and watched them grow into obedient and love-able, lifelong partners, as well as administered medicine, special diets, and lifestyle regimes.
