I’m a converted animal lover. Actually, I loved animals as a child, then went through a period of time when I didn’t “believe” in pets. Recently, I got a dog, Radar, from the shelter. She’s a shiba inu mix and in the few months she’s been with my family, has enriched us all. I’m also a travel writer, journalist and English instructor. I love words.

So, when I saw this opportunity to write about something, I thought, why not marry my love of words with a love for animals and try something that I haven’t done before.

I think that animals soften us, help us with compassion and enrich our lives in many ways. Being responsible for another creature teaches us to be more responsible in our lives and toward our fellow humans as well. There’s a reason pets are used for therapy.

Some of the things I would like to address on this blog, are adopting dogs and cats from a shelter, health issues, the best places to walk with dogs. I might get esoteric now and then and talk about animals in literature and myth. Or from time to time, I may talk about individual breeds or even individual dogs. The topics are endless.

So, here I am in the blogsphere looking forward to exploring new opportunities.
