I have been in contact with dogs and cats since birth, used to live on a farm in Portugal. I have breed show dogs 5 years ago in Portugal. I have 2 german shepherds at the moment to which are a handful for someone that aren't used to dog handle or large energetic breeds. I use non-harmful methods to train the dogs and use correct leashes and collars depending on the type of dog. I do provide long walks from 45 minutes to 1h depending on the breed. Cat wise, I give them space and respect of their territory. I am playfull towards them with their toys and allow them to interact with me however they feel like. I don't mind getting some scratches. I have had 2 cats in the past that were amazing (egyptian mau and a stray-cat, both were lovely and sweet). Small animals, like hamsters, I am good at handling them. I am at the moment hand training roborovskis to get use to people's hands. Provide good care and know when and not they should be handled
