I was raised with dogs and it was my job and joy to care for them.
I got my last dog when she was a puppy and she lived to be 18 1/2 and was in great shape and health until she slowed down at 18 and just chilled out for the last six months of her life.
Caring for your animals fills that void and makes me happy. I have trained...
