I'm a life long animal lover. I've had many animals over my lifetime and adore them all. I will only walk a dog on a lease. But happy to take long walks. Experience with a diabetic dog. Often will be accompanied by my 14-year-old homeschooled son, who seems like an animal whisperer and has a warm spot in his heart for bird.
