Growing up, we never had less than 4 dogs at all times. Dogs with health issues; dementia, seizures, skin problems, blind dogs. Dogs of ALL sizes; Great Dane, Chihuahuas, Labs, Pit Bulls, Min Pin. I've volunteered at an animal shelter, a pet store, and worked with an exotic pet show. I also have experience with cats, freshwater fish, chickens, ducks, and reptiles. I've been surrounded by animals of all types my entire life and I absolutely love every single type of animal, dog, cat, anything there is!
