Irene is a pet sensitive person every since I’ve known her and that’s a long time! She treats animals with the kind of heart you can only see in someone who respects the love and loyalty these little creatures bestow opón us everyday! She has shown in the many years I have known her that each and every pet has a unique and wonderful relationship with the humans that surround them. I have learned a lot from Irene on how much these amazing creatures can teach us! She has an extreme patience for grooming bathing and treating their wounds and ailments I have not seen anywhere. She makes me proud to know her. She once nursed a dog back to health that everyone though would surely die! She never gave up and that dog lived on to show all who had given up just how much the power of perseverance can be! This was a very big dog and to see that little girl picking up that dog with so much love and doing everything she did for her beloved pet until it was cured amazes me to this day! The dog was a giant schnauzer called Xena and I will never forget the powerful lesson in love Irene taught me. If you truly want someone who your pets can be safe with Irene is the only person I know that could be the best person to have and I know a lot of great people!
