I have grown up with dogs my whole life, I currently have a dog to call my own. My dog was a 'rescue' I lik to say. Even though i bought him, he was being eaten inside out by parasights, but 7 months later hes healthy and strohg. I have taken up learning how to perform cpr on a dog, as I am certified to do it on humans, much thanks to my lifeguard experperience.
