18 dogs have been a part of my heart, giant, and small. We currently share our home with a 4ish year old hound mix that found us a year ago, he has brought so much happiness back after losing our 16 year old Maltese, a 75lb black lab I found in the median of a highway in the pouring rain 9 years ago, a recently adopted 9 month old catahoula mix, fostering his brother, a 13 year old bearded dragon (we used to raise them), and 3 adopted cats, one of them also found on the side of the highway as a kitten. I've nursed 4 dogs fighting cancer, dealt with amputation, surgeries, and many other health issues. I've also taken care of 4 litters of puppies. Any animal entrusted to me is treated with the same consideration as my own. Always complimented on how well our dogs behave :) I am also a pet photographer, so quite used to pets from all walks of life.
