I have always loved dogs, usually more than most humans. I appreciate the honesty of a dog as well as their loyalty. Years ago I took in strays and rehabilitated them, and then found them good homes on CL. I truly enjoyed the experience and Im looking forward to adding some company to my pack. I understand that every dog is different as well as every owner. I have heaps of experience with a lot of different breeds and personalities. I think every dog wants to make their owner happy. It's just finding a way to relate to them so they understand what you want that is the challenge. Just being around dogs seems to put me in a more balanced state of mind, a sort of meditation for someone who gets flustered in the city.
