Very loving with all animals compassionate have always enjoyed having pets I love the interaction with pets and enjoy the play time with them . My last dog I had for 15 years which was-a-black lab. Me and my children loved to take her to the river and let her play in the water . She passed away about 2 years ago . I now have a kitty which was a stray she has been part of the family now for about 10 years . Now when my wife go walking we stop and make friends with all the dogs around the neighborhood. I feel that animals bring so much joy to our lives. When I retire I would love to get a service dog and go to assisted living facilities and bring joy to the elderly. I hope this helps in your decision to choosing a real animal lover . Thanks ....Phil
