I consider dogs family! I love to snuggle up close and love on them. I volunteer at Paw Works which is a non-profit rescue. I have a love of all animals. If I won a the lottery, I'd have my own rescue. Dogs have been a big part of my life. I am a very responsible person. I have been an elementary school teacher for 21 years and love what I do. I have watched my friends' dogs and have stayed overnight with them. I am kind and patient with them and like to spoil them with love, affection, and of course a treat or two. I have two dogs of my own who get along with every dog they meet. I have a small poodle and a Jack Russell Terrier mix.
