My first dog experience was with the family dog, Redal. She was a mix of Golden retriever and poodle. She was old when I was young. I only knew her for a small part of my life. Then along came Mimosa, another family dog. She was a Yellow Labrador. I was very active with her and I loved her. I knew her for all of her life. I would throw sticks into the lake that my grandparents lived on. It became a constant cycle of fetch. I would throw out my shoulder and she would be so tired she couldn't move for a day. Some photos of Mim and the lake that I speak of are in my profile. Then along came Winnie. She is another yellow lab and she is still alive. I look after my brother's dog when he is out of town. I care for my sister's dog when she is out of town. As you can see I have a lot of experience caring for dogs. I love being active with dogs. Either playing fetch with them or taking them for a run if they are able. I make myself available when it comes to caring for pets.
