I'm a dog person; I've had dogs all my life.

The first dog I had was owned by an abusive couple. He was very skittish. He wouldn't let me hold him. It was explained to me that it was because of how he was treated.

I grew up in a house with dogs. We always had dogs. We always had a bunch of dogs, actually.

I've had a guide dog since 1969. Not the same one, of course: I've had five.

I am from Brooklyn, NY, so we could not have many pets, but I always had at least two dogs.

We have a couple of dogs, but I wouldn't describe myself as an animal person.

There was no last animal I treated. When young farm lads started to help me over the gate into a field or a pigpen, to make sure the old fellow wouldn't fall, I started to consider retiring.

I've always loved dogs and have had one since I was three. We bought her from a kid selling puppies out of a cardboard box on the street where we lived in New York City. Great dog. We named her 'Marcella' after a Raggedy Ann character. She grew up with us.

I love dogs. I have a Golden Doodle and an Alaskan Klee Kai.

We owned a bearded collie for many years. Sophie. She was old, and she died last year.
