I am married to my husband who is in the coast guard. we have a little boy on the way who will be here in september of 2010. we have two kids Roper who is a 10 month old rottweiler puppy and Monty who is a 6 month old black and white kitten who we adopted.
I was raised on a farm, where we had horses, dogs, cows, chickens, pigs, and ducks. We had a kennel when i was growing up where we raised miniature dachshunds, miniature schnauzers, and german shephards. every one of our dogs are still spoiled rotten and we are very proud of them.
