About Karen

My experience is mostly with canines & felines. I've had limited to little acquired experience with exotic birds... mainly in the hatching & nursing stage of life after incubation. I currently share my home with 3 dogs and 4 cats.... with one of my(mancoon) cats convinced that he is actually a dog instead of a cat. Lol As I often attempt to rescue stray/homeless cats & dogs to good homes.... I'm accustomed to nursing and nurturing the weak, wounded, infested, malnourished, mangy.... to only mention a few conditions/concerns that require immediate attention. The "rescued" strays allow me to gain experience with the many aspects of grooming and general maintenance of a variety of breeds. I often perform a brief stretch massage before exercise and play sessions... focusing on the breeds more prone to degenerative disorders as well as the older group members. They each enjoy a 15-20 minute relaxing massage after activities. I'm a very passionate caregiver...
