I am all about pets. I have love for all animals but when it comes to dogs there is nothing greater then having a dog as a companion. I was raised with a husky til the age of 11. From the age of 11 to 15 my family and I took in dogs we found homeless. Our home became their homes for quite some time until we could find them some loving owners. At the age of 16 I got a Shih Tzu for my bday. I was able to spend 8 great years with him. He was the love of our lives. We even taught him to say " I love you" that was my favorite howl sound. Throughout my experiences of owning dogs I learned how to bath them (all size of dog), clip their nails, when to give rewards, time outs, play but best of all learn to love them all. Throughout my life, with all the dogs we ended up owning, I learned a lot about different dog characteristics. My favorite one being loyalty.
