Hello! My name is Ruth. Most of my life, I've been around animals. About 20 years ago is when I started rescue work whether it be with dogs or with cats. I currently live with my GSD that I rescued over a year ago. She gets along with with everyone (cats & dogs). We go for long walks daily. There is a dog park nearby that we attend regularly. I have a separate bathroom that I use to give her and her friends a bath when they get dirty. It's all about the play time. In my home, the dogs are allowed to get on the couch, sleep on my bed and sleep in the two open exlarge crates. For me it gives me joy to take care of animals. You should always love what you do for living. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me.
