Growing up down in the cotswolds, I always had at least 2 dogs in the house and experienced one dog having a litter of puppies. We often would take them on long walks in the hills daily and I really miss this part of my home life. In addition to this I have had 2 cats from a rescue centre. I have always loved spending time with animals and playing with them never fails to bring a smile to my face! Looking after dogs and cats has always been a part of my life and being at university has left a pet shaped hole in my life! Having dogs has allowed me develope skills to deal with young and old dogs and various aliments such as athiritis and deafness.
