I have been a big breed dog owner for over 40 years. During this time and because of my fondness for all animals I have had the pleasure to take care of friend's and neighbor's pets ranging from cats, mice, rats, dogs, fish etc.. I find that pets are instantly attracted to me and we build trusting bonds almost from the start. The animal's health and well being are always a priority for me, and I confess I have often fed a stray or two.
