I had one dog growing up and have since had two dogs (Beagle and Pitbull) as an adult and next will be a Merle Great Dane. But I want I want to travel first before getting one which would then limit me as that is quite a large dog. My ex has two dogs that are still my babies. I still go by every couple of weeks to see them, house sit for him when on trips for work, and have become quite comfortable being around dogs and cats. I have plenty of friends that have cats. I love feeding them treats, rubbing their head and playing with a laser with cats or other fun games with dogs. I love animals and will take great care of yours.
