I’ve lived with dogs/ cats my entire life and love their company. I feel we can learn and enjoy a lot from each other even tho we can’t converse with words. My dog Walter is one of my best pals I’ve ever known and know how important it is to have someone who cares looking out for their needs when you can’t be around. My partner and I love to travel and hike with Walter every chance we get. I respect all animals with equality and kindness, but also try to respect and tend to their individual personalities. I enjoy walking, playing, and generally keeping them company. I have no issues with cuddling/ close attention or friendly playing. If the dog/ cat prefers to be left alone and do their own thing, that’s fine too, as long as they’re not aggressive.
