My history starts from childhood through parents that were animal lovers, they passed this on to myself and my brothers. This magic affinity, love and passion has continued for my entire life. I lived in Perth Australia for 25 years, had the blessing to own and care for many species of birds...parrots. I trained others on the proper care, natures intentions to be carried out in pet birds. I started with one breeding pair of weiros known as Cockatiels in America. Resulting in many breeds I raised/ hand reared, by hand feeding babies, taming and teaching them to love and talk. I also looked after by fostering numerous rescue dogs and assisted with finding homes for them by matching to the right type of homes/ person/family. Offered day care, in my home or the doggie parents home whenever they needed pampering, or special care. I simply cannot put my babies in a kennel so someone like myself must only be allowed to care for them ion my absence. Despite my ability to spoil them rotten, treat them as humans, I always respect the wishes of the parents in matters of feeding, discipline, environment and personal care. After arriving in Little Rock I chose to volunteer at the Pulaski animal shelter for one year on my day off from my job as a patient care tech at the hospital.
