We are a Californian and a Pennsylvanian living on California's beautiful central coast.  We currently live in Paso Robles and share our home with three dogs, one cat, and numerous fish.  We have both had a lifelong love for animals and can't imagine a home without their presence.  Our hobbies include competing in dog sports, birding, photography, fishkeeping, making art, model building, and of course spending time with our furry family.
