I love dogs. So, I will take care of them the same way you would. I love to give them lots of kisses, hugs, rubs and massages. I have a lot of experience taking care of dogs I had a pet with cancer and another one with arthritis. I had to administer medications and certain therapy. The one with cancer was a senior dog needed a lot of special attention. The other dog wth arthritis needed assistance to move around the house also needed medication daily. It was medical attention around the clock. But I did it because they are oart of the family, those are the babies of the family. I loved them also. The availability on my part is flexible at this moment.
