I come from the countryside and grew up looking after all types of pets, including dogs (blue heeler, golden retriever, beagle, Saint Bernard, etc.), cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, frogs, chickens, turtles, fish, birds, sheep and cattle. Aside from our own animals, I would often even be asked to look after our neighbour's pets when they go away on holiday.
Having watched a lot of Dog Whisperer with Cesar Millan, I have also picked up a lot of tricks and hints in helping to ensure I look after dogs properly and even how to train them (sit, lay down, come).
Being away from home and from my pets for university, I would greatly appreciate the opportunity to express my love of animals and will look after any pet as if they are my own....
