I've cared for dogs all of my life. Growing up, my family raised champion English Springer Spaniels. As an adult I choose to rescue dogs. I have one of my own that we rescued 12 years ago. I watch my mother's two Springers and my daughter's two rescues when needed. I couldn't imagine not having a dog in my home. To me, they are a part of the family. I would care for anyone's pet as I do my own.
