I have had dogs all my life. The breeds I am most familiar with are Labs, Golden Retrievers, Pit bulls and Boxers. Dogs are the animals I am most familiar with, but I do know how to take care of other animals, too. I treat animals like they are family because I honestly they are. I am not afraid of most animals.
