We both have lived with different animals all our lives. I have been very much involved in the training, showing, riding of horses, in the breeding, showing and training of dogs and breeding, raising, taming of parrots. My husband has had dogs all his life. We also love cats! We have a short-haired Oriental at the moment who doesn't leave our side. We both like to travel and explore. This would be a win/win situation as we would really enjoy taking care of your garden, animals of all sorts (chickens, pigs, cows incl) and discover another country, city, or province. I have lived most of my adult life on a horse farm where I also operated a dog/cat boarding kennel. I have also worked with different vets. We both love the country, the outdoors and nature and we are active and fit. We are non-smokers.
