I grew up having an english spring spaniel and helped train her, such cuddlers. My parents then adopted another springer and she is a little more feisty but still so sweet and I go home to visit and dog sit often. After moving away from home, I've organized events at the ACC where volunteers came and 'socialized' with the dogs and cats for a few hours in the afternoon. Since then, I have dog sat a few of my friends dogs, including a golden retriever and a pitbull. I let them sleep in my bed with me and will go for long walks (or short if they prefer) for exercise, or bring them to a dog park, I truly love dogs and having them around. They are such innocent, loving animals, I think get more excited about them staying then they get excited for treats.
