I love dogs/cats. I think of them as a member of the family/children. I am very good about walking my dog and playing frisbee with him. It's important for interaction with your pet. I believe socialization is very important for dogs, if allowed they love meeting, playing with other dogs. My friends come to me with questions about what to do for their dogs or training questions. How to stop bad behaviors, etc. I believe a dog's diet is very important. In addition to being aware of how hot it is outside and if it's too warm to leave a dog in the car. Picking up after the dogs as well, always have poop bags with me. Currently I am working full time but have 3 days off each week and always play with my dog when I get home from work. While at work I take my dog to day care to make sure he is attended to while I am gone. Needless to say dogs are family.
