they will receive lots of love and attention. No special skills in dog training but i know animals communicate with us you just have to listen. I was raised on a ten acre farm with all kinds of animals that got drop off on our farm. One time 8 geese and 1 duck got drop off. We name the duck Isaac he was like the boss of the geese. Isaac loved hanging with us kids around the farm. He would follow us all over the farm as we did our chores. So we had 1 duck and 8 grey geese following us all over it was quit funny at times. So i think it would be fun to learn and to love some pets in my life.
