I am an animal lover from way back! I've read numinous books on dogs,cats,birds, and reptiles. I volunteered at Friends of Animals Foundation for 4 years walking different dogs on weekends. I have rescued a Beagle Cocker Spaniel mix who lives in my home along with the rest of my animal family, 5 leopard geckos, 2 crested geckos, 1 ball python, 1 african grey parrot, 1 cockatiel, and 1 lovebird. I look forward to meeting other peoples animals and helping out other pet owners.
