My family has been raising fur babies for generations. I can't remember a time when either a family member or I haven't had at least 1 dog at a time. I love not only caring for, but entertaining dogs of all kinds. I currently, in my home, have a 14 yr old black lab named Princess Lehia. She is fully trained, even tempered, loves other animals, and kids. Her bowl is filled 1x a day, and she eats as she pleases, but she is a lean doggo. She is regularly walked, treated well, and is the pride and joy of our family. One day, when I have children, I hope I have a fur baby to raise along side my child, so that they will be animal lovers as well!
