I believe that dogs make our lives better and more fulfilled. We feel that a house seems empty without a dog. My wife and I have owned dogs for 30 years and are wonderful with our dogs. We take excellent care of our dogs and walk our them at least once each day and twice on most days. Because we are good with dogs our neighbors have us take care of their dogs on occasion when they are out of town. To help dogs without homes I work one afternoon a week walking dogs at the NM Animal Association. I find this rewarding and am glad to give something back to dogs for all the love and companionship they have given to me during my life.
