I have had a dog most of my life. My first dog was a beagle named Dezy, I raised him for 12 years. Dezy would go hunting in Tennessee and had lots of land to roam on, sometimes he would catch rabbits in the garden. During the day he would play with me and my sisters. At night he came inside and slept in my room. After that I cared for two Dobermans, Pharaoh and Dolly for 2 years. Pharaoh would go on runs in the morning before class everyday for about an hour. Then I trained and lived with a German Shepherd named Koda and an old cocker spaniel named Snickers for 2 years. I taught Koda to sit, stay, lay down, and come. I taught Snickers to sit, stay and lay down.
