From personal experience with my dogs, birds and fishes I have plenty. I had my first dog when I was 6 years old and he was with me for 12 years. Then I had my second dog for a year and a half, I had to give him away beacuse of work. And I wanted him to be happy and I know it was best for him. I love pets and I believe that they are the greatest gift we could of ever got. I love to play with them, talk to them and make them feel loved. Also I have alot of patience and energy when it comes to dogs. I like to walk and that's one of the things I used to love doing with my dog walk around until he would get tired.
