I've been an avid pet lover since birth! Grew up with many (indoor/outdoor) cats but due to a lack of a fenced in yard was not allowed to have a dog. As I eagerly awaites the day my parents would allow me to adopt a dog, I spent hours researching breeds and training my friends' dogs, even taken a few to training classes for the experience! Once I finally was allowed to have a dog, I've never been without one! The first fur-love of my life was Kalipso, a beautiful purebred beagle, who was a head strong adorable hound, who's nose got her into trouble a few times. She was mine for 14yrs! I was then adopted by two pups that were stray pups that were roaming around my "no-pet" community (they have a way of choosing us don't they 😍). I opened my heart and my home to these six month old pups and had them both for 16yrs. One was special needs as he was blind since the 1st day.(that was a new experience with a learning curve!) I went through each stage of their life cycle with curiosity, learning as much as I could to provide the best possible care for them, including the senior stages of life and all the challenges that can bring, especially with a blind (and deaf as he aged) dog. I worked with a doggy social club (doggy daycare basically), learning so much more about training and socializing with pups as well as how they interact with each other. I currently have two dogs that have my heart. Ellie, who's a 12yr old terrier beagle mix and Starla, who's a Boston Terrier spitfire! She has boundless energy spurts and crashes hard in between those spikes. Lol Lastly, I have had the joy and honor of volunteering at a local humane society for the past two years. I first started there doing clean up crew and laundry but the role grew into providing more socialization, love/pets/scratches/cuddles and now I also help with the adoption processes. It is a highlight of my week to see wagging tails and hear purring kitties during my time there. I can't wait to bring the same love and attention to your fur-family members!
