I've always been an animal lover and have interacted with many beloved pets over the years. From dogs and cats to birds and rodents. I frequently take care of my nephew Leo (see photos) - a 2-year-old Papillon. I tend to get along with most pets and even those that I don't I know how to give space. Usually, they warm up though!
