I have had two dogs for the past ten years, I have had many others I've cared for in that time as well. When my eldest dog started getting to be a senior he developed diabetes, and I have experience injecting insulin if needed, or other medications. And also good at getting dogs to eat medications in pill form. :) If they are unfortunately needed. I have owned from small to large sized dog. I currently live with two large very happy dogs! Old and mellow, and middle aged and active. Going on daily walks is one of our favorite activities. I also enjoy making home made dog food and treats, made with all dog safe and healthy ingredients. Any dog that has tried them loves them!
