I grew up surrounded by all kinds of animals from skunks, ducks and reptiles to dogs and cats. There was never a time that I didn't have a dog and there still hasn't been. I've cared for puppies and elderly dogs. I can administer medicine and help train. I once saved my dog that was choking on a stick by reaching into his throat and pulling it out. I also witnessed a pit bull puppy being thrown out of a van in the Metroparks 9 years ago and rescued him. I cared for him until I found him a good, loving home. He is still doing great to this day. But most important, there's nothing I'd rather do than work with animals and give them the love they need. I'm very physically active and love taking dogs for walks and runs. Unfortunately, I'm allergic to cats but I will happily help with any other animals you have.
