"Dogs are such a part of my life that I can't imagine being without them. I appreciate the animal mind and learn something new about the incredible canine every day. I live with three rescue dogs, and have to maintain control not to overpopulate my household with more. It isn't easy, because being surrounded by unlimited love 24/7 feels great!"
