We always had dogs and other animals in our home growing up I've always had animals in my life. i also know that for most people their dogs are like their children and should be treated as such when caring for them. haven't met a dog that hasn't loved me. I have taken care of many breeds of dogs- German Shepard, Labrador Retriever, Yorkshire Terrier, Pit Bull, just to name a few. I have taken in stray dogs and rescue dogs on many occasions and made a good home for them.
