Many years of being a child with pets at our home and on my grandmother's farm. My children were raised with pets and caring for their pets. Since being retired, have become an active volunteer for the Pet Rescue Movement in Houston, a non-profit which helps dogs find foster parents for those fur babies. Recently took classes for bottle babies. These are newborns, which their mothers have been seperated and little ones need to be fed. My favorite walk is to see a unsure dog become happy, tail waging and its head up and looking all around. Also, they are so happy to see you as they know they are going to have a good time. Anytime is a good time to be with a dog.
