I have always loved animals since I was a child. I would and still geed the street cats and dogs. I house many strays and find homes for them from time to time. When I was 19 I joined a volunteer organization called Bestfriends of Atlanta. They are a shelter that saves animals and takes care of them and are run by volunteers. I love animals and have owned over 10 dogs myself. My dogs name is Mink and he is completely blind. He was diagnosed with a disease that ate away at his eyes and he has been blind for a year now. I joined the Army a year ago and plan on working with trained military dogs soon. I will always love and protect animals.
