My husband and I have been around animals our whole lives !! We have been taking care of animals 20 + plus years . I have helped with the birthing of pups , cows and horses . I have nursed a pup from the parvo virus . I had to gave med's and needle injections to animals over the years . My mother n law breads and raises dogs , I go over there time to time to help when needed ! We don't have dogs at this moment because we want to wait, until our new home is complete ! We do have 6 chickens and 1 cat that we LOVE ! I hope I get to talk to you and give you a piece of mind that I will take care of your babies !
