I've always been a dog lover, and that hasn't changed since I was little. My first dog was German Shepherd who grew up with me by my side every day of the week. She loved to explore as much as I did - no matter where we were or what we were doing! Volunteering at the shelter has allowed me to meet all sorts of new breeds and find homes for truly wonderful dogs like her: animals who give back so many unconditional love in return!
