I grew up on a farm and have always taken care of animals. My own animals have included: a Pitbull, Old English Sheep dog, German Shephard mix, Belgian Tervurian, a Peekapoo, cats, horses, cows, pigs, chickens, geese, a turtle, frogs, bunnies, and fish. I have cared for dogs and cats with health issues (including diabetes & kidney disease so I'm not squeamish giving injections or fluids) and disabilities. I have volunteered at animal shelters and with animal rescue organizations throughout my life. My goal is to start an animal assisted therapy practice with rescued disabled animals.
