I've been told by my three dogs that I give the best walks and ear scratches around. We don't just walk as much as we prance and dance and let everyone know we own that road. I usually let them pick the music. Snuggles, ear scratches, and belly rubs are the best way to cool down afterward. I was a phlebotomist so I am comfortable if a dog needs an injection or any kind of medications. Cats are a whole different type of mood. I will happily play fetch for them. I've been told by my cat Inky that I am a good peasant who serves her King well. As you can see from this profile I try to keep it easy and fun and I feel like you, your family, and your pets will feel the same way.
