I got my first dog when I was 10. He was a miniature schnauzer named Scrappy. He lived a long, healthy 15 years despite getting Cataracts when he was 10 and passed away in his sleep. Scrappy also had puppies of which I assisted in the birth, and even cut the umbilical cord of all the puppies. We kept one of the puppies and named him Scooby. Scooby also lived to be 15 years old and had to be put down due to old age. While we had a Scooby, we got a miniature Yorkie named Tommy. Tommy is currently five. A year ago, we adopted a German shepherd from the Miami animal shelter, and named her Lola. She is currently 2 to 3 years old. Despite the difference in size, Tommy and Lola are best friends. You can rest, assured, knowing that I love pets of all sizes and ages, and I am very patient with them. I will treat your pets as my own, and will take care of them to the best of my ability!
