As mentioned I have always been a animal lover. I have in the past owned a Chihuahua, dachshund and pit bull two of which were raised by me since they were puppies. I pride myself on knowing my animals lived happy, healthy lives and each were loved deeply. Although I do not own any animals anymore I love the presence and joy that they bring. My home as it may be small it warm and would be comfortable fit for a small puppy or elderly dog. I do have a two year old son that has been around dogs and this would be a warm up for me to eventually get him on of his own. My home is walking distance from a park, nature walk and driving from a dog park if owner wishes.
