My whole life has been about loving gardening and animals! I've had Dogs, Cats, Birds and Cattle. I was very hands-on with all of them, from babies until their final days. I learned to groom our Poodle at age 12. Groomed my mother's Cocker Spaniel, as well as my Miniature Schnauzer, Zucker. He was my Empty Nest Medicine! My last, was my Basset Hound, Carlie, who was an absolute mess! Girl with an attitude and kept me laughing with her funny ways. Spinner was my last cat, who loved seeing a brush in my hand! I can't think of them for very long, without tears coming. I miss them all. My Cows were my greatest teachers that loved me through proving to myself that I wasn't crazy. They will listen. They meet in the middle. And their eyes always dig deep into your heart, just as any fur baby. I have Animal Health Tech experience. I've assisted with birthing dogs, cats and cattle. Familiar with administering meds, etc. And puppy massages for a little relief of arthritis have been one my fur babies always enjoyed!
