I am a stay at home mom and my girls will be going to school and daycare soon so I will have some extra time on my hands. I have owned and been around dogs and other animals my whole life. My parents or myself have owned and raised several different breeds of dogs and I was raised around other different types of animals like horses, rabbits, chickens, goats etc. so I am familiar with animals in general and I enjoy being around any type and my children do as well. My home has tall baby gates to my living room and large downstairs area and a good size back yard.
