I've been around animals my entire life and I can't imagine being without them. Because they bring joy and laughter to my life. I like to make sure I return the favor by providing lots of attention, whether that is playing fetch, going for a walk, practicing commands, or just hanging out. I have 3 small dogs and 4 cats, a bearded dragon, 2 gerbils, a mouse and fish. I'd have more if I had the room. In the past, I have coordinated events called "Pawraisers". The funds from these events went directly to no kill shelters. I'm also a huge advocate for animal rights, protection. I feel vet checks are necessary and required. I believe I'd make a wonderful "fill in" friend for your best friend.
