I’ve cared for my own dogs for the past 8 years, starting with a long-haired dachshund who’s been with me since the beginning. A few years later, I adopted a Shiba Inu I found near my apartment building. Just last year, I rescued an injured stray dog from the street near my home. Each one has taught me something different about patience, trust, and unconditional love. I care for dogs like they’re family—feeding them, walking them, tending to their needs, and making sure they always feel safe and loved
