Capulet's Biosketch

You can call me Capulet. I adore the simple things in life.

I enjoy wet kisses on my face when I come home from work. I love a big paw on my right shoulder when we go for a drive. On chilly nights, he keeps me warm with his furry back against my back. He constantly makes me laugh when he plops his 80lb body on my lap. Oh, and to see his giant Kool-Aid smile.

His name is Gizmo. He is my eight-month year old puppy. He is a mix of Pyrenees and Bernese mountain dog. He will grow to weigh between 120 -140lbs. I adopted him and his brother seven months after my Zorro passed away. I was broken hearted. I always knew I had extra love in my heart to give to dogs in need. I made the decision and I now have two puppies. Gizmo lives with me and Chewbacca lives with my parents.

 

Animals always surrounded me when I was growing up. I had two cats, three dogs, countless fish and one chicken. My Grandparents owned dogs and horses. They even owned twelve dogs at once. I used to live next to a horse farm. From my backyard, I observed the horses. I eventually started to take equestrian lessons at the farm. Animals have always been a part of my life. But, my true passion is raising puppies.

The past few years have been a challenging time for me. Zorro was not a well dog. Health concerns started to take the inevitable turn. I am not a vet and I do not have experience in the medical field. I wanted to learn more information. I asked questions and researched the Internet to learn more information about dog health. Knowledge is power.

This leads us to the reason for my Passion for PAWS website. I want to inform pet owners about “puppy health awareness.” With new advanced technology, veterinarians and pet owners are learning more information about health concerns. This can be a stressful and depressing time for pet owners. I plan to deliver a fresh perspective through a light-hearted voice.
