I have lived with dogs since I was a child, which is actually over 30 years. We have had 2 dogs for the last 15 years in our house; not all the same as one passed away about 4 years ago. We have a fenced in back yard but I also take my dogs on several walks. I am the main care giver to my 2 dogs. I love them almost as equal to the love I have for my adult daughter; they're my babies too. I will be unemployed in mid-December until I can find another full-time job. I would love to spend my free time walking, playing, snuggling and caring for animals who need some love, companionship, and attention while their owners are at work or out of town.
