My dad is the deputy sheriff and has experience with K-9 training as well as raising dogs. My mom, a former dog groomer, has raised and rescued many different types of animals, including rabbits, chickens, dogs, cats, gerbils, and snakes. My family even raised goats, horses, and pigs at one point in time. I grew up loving all animals and learning about how to care for them. Now, we have a small farm outside of town where our dogs have 5 acres of beautiful land all to themselves.
