I'm a recently completed PhD student who has started their post doctoral research in sleep. I am 34 years old and from Australia (Brisbane) where our family has raised a fox terrier since he was a pup. Our dog is like a brother to me, we ensured he was healthy and happy. I understand the importance of physical activity, attention, good food, and socialising for a dogs' well being. I also have experience with taking care of koi for 2 years in our previous household. Fish require less affection but nonetheless require constant surveillance and monitoring. I am responsible, kind, physically active, and love animals. My research means I get to choose my own hours and would love to have more dogs in my life.
