My passion is all kinds and ages of canine friends. If you love dogs like I do then this is the web site for you! I have raised and owned dogs for 47 years of my life, including small, medium , and large dogs. Many of the principles of care are the same , whether we are talking about a puppy or an adult dog. My on line searches for questions used to be all over the internet. Over the years I thought that going to one site for multiple types of information on care, grooming,age- appropriate nutrition , health concerns, obedience training, as well as offering links for canine products would be a great asset. LovinMyPup.com aims to do all that! New articles and information will be posted and updated frequently. Let me assist you in your journey as you enjoy the benefits of your Best Friend! Stop and Shop!
