my husband and I have had some pretty special dogs in our life. One especially was our Mimi who passed away this last December . we had her in our lives for 12 wonderfully blessed years. We believe dogs are family just like children. they are spoken to just like you would speak to a child. Mimi went everywhere with us. She loved her car rides and loved everyone and everything. I care so very much for animals I think I say a prayer for every animal I see along the road. I want every animal to feel safe and feel loved. Animals have so much unconditional love to give. If given the chance to sit your special family member I will give them the love and care and companionship they so deserve.
