I'm very passionate in everything I care about. I hold very strong convictions, but don't mind those that are completely different or believe different things than I do. I engross myself in learning about new things. I cannot stand the laziness of someone who opts to skip over something vs. looking it up to learn about it. I hate sticking to schedules, and love being spontaneous. Honesty is a huge virtue to me. I have a LOT of things going on in my life - I'm currently writing a novel (fiction), running a family business, starting a new business, running a charity business, bought my first house, and have two dogs- I do make the time out for "myself" as I have not often done this in the past, and know that I have to.

I got Oliver when he was 5-1/2 weeks old. Brought him home in a little cardboard box. Immediately fell in love with him. I truly consider him my soul mate. Has been the easiest good natured training dog that I've ever had. Oliver has has gone to work with me everyday since I got him. He has his own fan club here at work. Then there is Susie. After going through my divorce and taking a year and a half off from any kind of socialization to "find" myself-I started dating again. Well since Oliver had been alone with me for so long, I decided now might be the time to get Oliver a sister. My heart was leaning towards a rescue boxer since, I really did not want to go through "puppyhood" all over again. I hooked up with a boxer rescue on petfinder and found Susie and immediately fell in love with her. Susie's story is QUITE sad as she was bought for $2500 (she

My Mommy (by Oliver & Susie) My Mommy She's just my mom. She is my other eyes that can see above the clouds; my other ears that hear above the winds. She is the part of me that can reach out into the sea. She has told me a thousand times over that we are the reason for being. By the way she rubs our bellies By the way she scratches our ears By the way she shows her love by taking us everywhere she goes and brings us a treat if we cannot go to show her guilt. (I think it makes her sick with worry when she is not along to care for me.) When I am wrong, she is delighted to forgive. When I am scared, she comforts me. When I am happy, she is joy unbounded. When I am a fool, she ignores it. When I succeed, she brags. Without her, I'm not Mr. wiggle waggle or Susie Q. With my mommie, I am all-powerful. With my mom I know a secret comfort and a private peace. My head on her knee can heal my doggy hurts. Her presence by my side is protection against my fears of dark and unknown things. She has promised to wait for me. . .whenever. . .wherever. In case I need her.

I am a woman seeking a man age 28 to 45

What do I want in a man- I'm open to anything as long as respect is into the equation. Additionally, you MUST like dogs as I would never give up my "baby" for anyone. I just took in my first foster dog so, now I currently have two "babies" I'm a huge animal lover-while you don't have to love animals a general "like" towards them is a must. A sense of humor is also a MUST. I have a very dry sense of humor, and often my humor comes across in sarcastic ways. While, I love to cook and do so almost every night of the week, if you feel that my "place" is in the kitchen I'm probably not for you. I would also like someone who has a faith. While, it's not so important that the faith is the same as mine, a general belief in the same principles that I have are important.

Oliver loves anyone and everything
