I wasn't allowed to have a dog growing up so as soon as I felt like I could take care of a dog I got one and I have not been without a furry friend since. I adopted my first dog 15 years ago. :) I love to learn how they communicate their needs and wants and I think dogs are so much smarter than people typically give them credit for. I am a mom of a teen-ager and an artist in the Hollywood/Franklin Village area for 4 years now. Animals enrich our lives and become best friends and family and that is how I will treat your furry friend :) I am also excited to walk your dog as I am wanting the exercise for myself as well!!
