Ever since I was a young girl I was surrounded by the love, comfort, and security my Keeshond, Patriot, gave me. The years have passed, and so has he, but my love and devotion to any and all types of dogs remained. After graduating from the University of New Haven in the Spring, I am currently unable to have any type of animal in my apartment. Weeks later, I can no longer handle not having an animal to love and care for, so I decided to see if any furry friends needed me instead! I understand the notion that pets can be our children, and I vow to treat each animal just as you would; with unconditional love, affection, and of course lots of snuggles!
