We lost our Molly (Blue Heeler mix) a few years ago. She was 15yrs old. Since then we've rescued Sissy (our cat), Charlie Brown (our rabbit), and our newest addition, Milo (Black Mouth Cur/Boxer mix). My husband has been very reluctant to get another dog, as he still mourns Molly. But a dog's energy is something that cannot be substituted. We need them as much as they need us. That being said, Milo is also an emotional support animal. Admittedly, my experience with dogs comes mostly from ownership and pet sitting for family and friends. But this includes puppies, dogs in their prime, and senior dogs, with or without their faculties. I'm capable of bathing, grooming, medicating, feeding (anything from dog food to fresh meat) and cleaning up after dogs of any age. ***I'm also happy to take care of cats and exotic animals, if needed. This includes anything from reptiles, birds, fish, to rabbits, hamsters, and other exotics.
