I have a dog named Theodore that I have been taking care of since 2010. He hasn't traveled with me everywhere even to London U.K. He has been there for me through some very tough times. Now that he is 7 years of age it's hard for him to be separated from me and its hard to find someone to trust casting for your baby. I know how I would want my Precious dog to be treated if I am away. We are the center of their universe , and all they want to do is serve us, we have to love, be patient and protect them. I love all animals, I tend to just connect with dogs more. Your dog will absolutely love me
