Robin has rescued many dogs and in fact, I believe every dog she has ever had was a rescue. She has 3 rescue dogs at home now and they are very well pampered and loved. She loves her dogs and enjoys greeting other people's dogs while out walking in the neighborhood. She is sensitive to their needs, and I have never seen her "punish" or scold her dogs. She just seems to know why they might act up and she responds accordingly. She plays with them, gives them plenty of attention, and they are quite sheltered. Robin has a very outgoing personality and I strongly recommend her watching anyone's pets and being a responsible pet owner and caregiver.
