I grew on a horse ranch with a variety of animals including dogs, cats, horses, goats, chickens, and reptiles. I grew up riding horses and am a member of United States Pony Club. I also have a lot of experience caring for dogs of all sizes and temperaments and indoor and outdoor cats. In total I have had seven dogs of all ages, some which were rescues; two German shepherds, a border collie, a dachshund, a Chinese crested and two corgis. I have cared for several indoor and outdoor cats and rescue kittens. I also have experience caring for chickens, lizards and snakes. I have cared for several chickens which I raised from chicks, a non venomous snake, a chameleon, and a breeding pair of bearded dragons. I also have basic animal first aid experience.
