I grew up with dogs and cats. I had two Rottweilers, an Olde English Bulldog, a German Shepard, and a couple other strays so big dogs do not scare me at all. I am a very active person so I love taking dogs for runs/walks. I have had a cat my entire life and I love getting to know their unique personalities.
