Hi! I’ve been around pets all my life. I grew up with a cat and a dog. For the past five years I have had a dog trapped in a cats body named Jack and I had a bearded dragon named Steve (Jack’s bestie) who I had to give up when I moved to Texas from California. But luckily one of my former 5th grade students is loving Steve for me now. I’m responsible and loving but strict if needed. (Teacher at heart) I should tell you that I am 5’1 and 125 lbs. I don’t mind being jumped on by big dogs here and there (my ex had a Great Dane who loved to dance) but if you have a very large dog who does not walk well on a leash, I’d rather keep my arm in my socket and your dog safe :)
