I have grown up with dogs in my household since I was born. Currently my family has a Chow Chow Golden Retriever mix and a King Charles spaniel mix that we adopted from the pound. I walk and take care of them everyday and Lucy requires medicine 4 times a day which I give to her at specified times throughout the day. They eat cooked food that is made fresh for them weekly. I always try my best to make them feel loved such as petting and grooming them, giving them belly rubs, and talking to them to make them feel like they are a part of the family. I always take notice when they do something positive and give them praise, affection, and/or a treat to reward them.
