Hi there! A little about my history with animals-
Growing up my family always had at least two dogs at a time. I can't remember a time I wasn't taking care of dogs! I now have two cutie muts and recently rescued a kitten :)
My brother always had/has reptiles, so I'm comfortable and somewhat familiar with snakes/lizards....
