I’ve been passionate about dogs since I was a young girl, and I have been taking care of them for over 7 years now. The day I adopted my two dogs was one of the best days of my life. I have a Great Pyrenees/Labrador mix named Lucy and a small Shiba Inu named Jax who currently live with my parents, so I really do get the best of both worlds of different kinds of dogs! Whether it’s taking them on runs, going to the park, or exploring the dog beach, I have the best of times with them. While in college, my roommate and I rescued an American Pitbull. Her previous owner kept her outside, neglected to provide her medicine, and we believe he used her for breeding. We took her into our college apartment and fostered her for several months. At first she was somewhat hostile and quite overweight from being neglected for so long; she could barely walk up the stairs on her own. After 3 months, she completely transformed into a whole new dog. We were able to get her medicine, took her on daily long walks, and showed her more love than you can imagine. She lost 30 pounds and opened up to us to show us the affectionate and playful dog she is! It was a very eye opening experience, and showed me how a little patience and love can go a long way. I hope to show the same compassion towards you and your dogs. I can’t wait to meet your furry friends!
