Former veterinary nurse and kennel maid, I have been a pet owner for all of my life. I have always been an animal lover, especially dogs and up until recently I had 2 dogs, A Rough Collie and a German Spitz, unfortunately my Collie passed away 2 months ago. He was my 5th Rough Collie over the years. My little Spitz is still lost with out his big friend, but at the moment I have no plans to get another dog.
