"Everyone thinks they have the best dog. And none of them are wrong." -W.R. Purche Did you know chow chows have two more teeth than the average dog? Or that dachshunds were bred to hunt badgers ("dachshund" is German for badger dog)? I love fun facts and animals of all kinds. I grew up with chow chows and poodles and now have a basset mix and a dachshund mix. My primary experience is taking care of geriatric dogs and cats. I have administered medication. I have taken care of animals other than dogs, including rodents, fish, and turtles. I love spending time with animals and sending pictures of the pets I sit.
