One busy Easter, I helped walk dogs at Ripponvale Pet Retreat. That was 2011 and I am still here. I feel privileged to have known dogs and cats that come to stay over such a long period of their lifetime.

I especially love labradors and have been known to sneak several into the kennel lounge to keep me company on quiet afternoons. I can't imagine a more perfect job - hanging out with dogs at work.
I have two dogs - an older labrador/spaniel cross and a young labrador - and a made-himself-at-home stray un cat like cat. At fourteen, he has never caught a bird or mouse.
In my free time, I like to do easy hikes, not too scary mountain biking and go geocaching with my dogs.
