I grew up with a large breed dog for ten years and before I came to ASU, I cared for, with my family, a small breed dog we've had for the past eight years. I've never met a dog I have disliked. Between my dogs and friends dogs, I am really great with handling different types. Like energetic, calm, small, or large. I am willing to do just about anything for dogs, like longer walks or if they just need extra love/cuddles while their owners are away. During my first school year at App, I rode for my college's equestrian team. So whenever I went to the barn I was around a lot of different animals like cats, dogs, pigs, turkeys, peacocks, alpacas, goats, donkeys and of course, horses! So I am also comfortable being around animals other than dogs too.
