Animals have always been a big part of my life. For as long as I can remember we have always had a pet whether it was a dog or cat. Right out of high school I worked at an animal shelter and had the opportunity to take care of dogs for hours. I adopted my first dog from that shelter and it was one of the happiest days of my life. I grew up walking, feeding and training our pets. I’ve walked a variety of dogs including small, medium, large, young, old, and even some with serious injuries or joint issues. To me a dog or a cat isn’t just a pet, they’re family. They love unconditionally and they don’t judge, they just care fo us and they should be treated the same way.
