I have been caring for animals my entire life, I've always found an incredible fascination with the way dogs and cats establish respect through their own style of communication. As a toddler I was positively influenced by my best friend being a wolf dog named Kefra. Later on in my childhood I had the privilege of caring for a pitbull named Cookie. A few years ago I was living with a cute pitbull mix for a year, Bear is in my hometown across the state, my cats and I miss him as he helped raise them as kittens. My cat Fry learned to growl when playing tug of war. When he reminds me that he was socialized by a dog I am excited to someday reintegrate a dog into their lives. The occasional roomate having one has been keeping them aware of the different energy levels that a dog can bring to a house. I enjoy hanging out with all types of dog breeds! I find it exciting when a little dog can keep my pace and when I can run through the grass with a larger dog. I love to reward an animal with positive reinforcement that creates an important trust, which aids in a more playful environment.
