I am an animal lover that grew up with a menagerie of cats, rabbits, anoles, hermit crabs, hamsters and a Border Collie mix who loved to urban mush with me rollerblading. For a couple years I had gotten involved with fostering dogs and puppies of various ages, sizes, energy levels and temperaments. I loved watching shelter dogs come out of their shells and learning about their personalities and needs. I am no longer able to foster due to time and space and I miss it a lot.
