A lifetime spent with a succession of pets, both dogs and cats....even rats, as a kid. My two dogs currently are gentle, quiet and happy to welcome others into our home. My kids go in and out of the fenced yard, and love car rides, especially those that take us to both on- and off-leash parks and trails for our daily walks. I live near “Canada’s largest urban forest”, Mundy Park, and am not far from rivers and lakes where the dogs love to play. I also have had many cats over the years, but the last of them died at 21 about 15 years ago. I often provided care for a neighbour’s cats in their home. Generally I love both cats and dogs. Seriously.
