I’ve had the privilege of growing up with pets my whole life thus far. I have attended numerous dog training classes with our Australian Shepherd‘s. Classes from puppy class to obedience and even agility. I have also helped foster our Australian Shepherd breeders dogs and puppies. I’ve also grown up raising cats as well as birds. I am experienced with parakeets, lovebirds and cockatiels. I currently live with my family and have an Australian Shepherd, a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel and three Tonkinese cats and two cockatiels. From the age of eight I began grooming, both cats and dogs. This included, bathing, trimming nails, brushing teeth and administering any medications. I took care of our neighbors dog for seven years. He was an Irish terrier named Darby. I also rode horses for 8 years. Part of that included mucking and grooming. (25 horses). I’ve also had fish of many kinds. When I was 14 years old, I traveled with my family to Nebraska to a working cattle ranch for branding and vaccinating over 500 heads of cattle. I had the privilege of assisting this process.
