Pet care experience
My elderly next door neighbors, Mr. Joseph and Mrs. Shirley Hernandez had five dogs: Punky, Cinders, Puppy, Tuuk, and Loca. From the age of 8 to 16 years old, I would go to their house everyday and help feed the dogs dinner and walk them right after. Spending so many years with the dogs made my love for animals bigger. Punky was a little "hot dog" who was a tad heavy and when I took him for a walk he would roll over on his back and I would have to carry him back. Cinders was an elderly black labrador dog that walked were very calm. Do not be fooled by "puppy" she was not a puppy, she was about 6 years old at that time, but she was the sweetest dog ever. Tuuk, was a beautiful white husky who loved to be in the AC during summer and during winter she loved to be in the snow. Loca, was the youngest of all, I was maybe 14 at the time she came around, unfortunately, Cinders had passed away, so Loca the Puppy came at a very good time. Yes Loca was her name, which means "crazy" in spanish. By no means she was crazy but like any puppy she was energetic and she wanted to play all the time. Spending so many years with them, made me a more patient and understand person towards animals. Every dog has a different personalities and likes, for example Tuuk did not like being in hot weather, punky did not like walking more than half a block, and I learned so much. Now for the past seven years I have been taking care of Bella, a white maltese. She stays with me when her mom and dad go out of town and for seven years her and I been through so many memories. I am a proud mom of a 4 year old cat named Lainey, who I love very much. Currently, I am preparing to apply to Veterinary School and I am a member of PAWS chicago. I raised and ran the Chicago marathon last year for all the homeless cats and dogs. This year, I am preparing once again to run and raise funds for an amazing cause. As you can see, my ove for animals begun at a very early age and with the experience I had with different types of dogs, is what has led me to become a future VET! With the same love and care I give/gave to Lainey, Loca, Punky, Tuuk, Bella, Cinders and Puppy. I will give to your pup:-)
