I haven't had a dog in years, but love them. Thought this would be a way to receive dog love, without actually owning one. Or, on the other hand, might push me over the edge and decide to actually get another dog. Don't really have any special skills, other than loving animals. I'm patient, kind and loving toward people and animals. I will love you dog and treat it as if it were my own. Never tried anything like this before, looking to change how I view my life going forward and really want dogs to be a part of my life again. That piece has been missing for many, many years. I will treat your pet lovingly and with kindness, I know dogs are like kids to their parents ;)
