Growing up I never had enough pets. We ended up breeding our dogs for 2 litters. We did not do that as a business plan, but for love of the dogs. I was the one child (of 4) with the bird, hamster, rabbits, cats and of course dogs. We recently lost our last fur baby to kidney failure. I have found new relationship with new pup (or other pets) through this site. Cats, birds, reptiles are all in my wheel house as well. I have a flexible schedule and easy going/fun loving personality. Profile is of dogs I watch. Big and small are all welcome:-). If you want the best for your family, you will have no need to look any further. Additionally, I gave my pet (in his end life) subQ IV fluids. This is not an easy task. I am a patient person. I have spent time with the head Vet at the PHX Zoo and have spent 2 days on rotation as a shadow. It was a unique situation and I watched/ assisted in a few surgeries, checked in on sick zoo residents and helped put together special diet plans. Administering meds is not a problem with me. I am not squeamish, so if your loved one has a special circumstance, I got you covered!
