I've been a lover/ owner of dogs, cats, ferrets, hamsters and horses since I was a child. I have never minded being the pooper scooper and was always elected to feed, walk and bathe our pets. In fact I've found I can't live without multiple pets lol. I've tried and it never lasts. I treat them like my children, I have rules that are for their benefit and well being but I spoil them with love. I married someone who feels as I do so we have our dogs as our children. I work full time, am gone early and home early but am home weekends. I crate our babies during the day so they are safe. Healthy treats are a constant in our home with plenty of toys to play with.
