I have had dogs all my life, I was a foster mom for Helen Woodward Animal Shelter for many years. I currently have 2 large dogs in my home. Rottweilers are my Favorite breed, but I love all dogs. To me they are children not pets. All my friends will tell you I am the first person they would call if they found a stray animal. I prefer to home sit so that the dog is more comfortable in their own surroundings. All my current and past dogs have been "mutts". I seem to end up with strays of every species.
