I have been a dog owner my whole life and have an affinity with them, in. that they almost always trust and like me. My friends often call me "the dog whisperer". I'm also a great cat lover and have always owned at least one, sometimes more. I'm also very good with many other types of pets having owned at one time or another, mice, hamsters, guinea pigs, rabbits, rats, parrots, cage birds, an African Wild cat and even a tortoise. I have also had experience with horses, sheep, pigs, gorillas, chimpanzees and spiders.
