I first learned how to walk so I could get up and pet our families Collie. Since then, I've been best friends with all typed of dogs from playing soccer with larger Great Danes, to just throwing the ball around the room with Dachshunds. I've been a volunteer for various animal shelters and clinics throughout my childhood and later in life. I've spent most of my college summers watching various canine friends to raise money during school. I have an adopted rescue myself ( a small Australian terrier named Bow-Tie). Dogs are all unique, have their own personalities and they are not only friends but they truly are family and should be treated and respected so.
