I have been very fond of animals since childhood.
I have been very fond of animals since childhood. While growing up in Jamnagar, Gujarat, I had a number of animals like peacocks, jackals, rabbits, dogs, etc in my backyard.
My parents are fond of animals and I have inherited it too. At home, I have three dogsu00a0-- Sally, Shadow and Spikey. The first two are Labradors, while Spikey is the pug. They all have different personalities. While Shadow is slightly reserved, Sally is friendlier.

Spikey is the attention-seeker and will start barking the moment he sees me talking to someone else. There was a time when I had around 12 dogs in the house, when my dogs had given birth. But I had to give away the puppies. I have a special area made for them in my house with an adjoining garden to play in.
My wife is also a dog lover, though not as much as me. But my sons absolutely love the pets and play with them for hours.
My dogs are quite active and friendly with all the kids in the society. They hate dog food, and enjoy eating chicken curry, mutton, fish, etc. I am getting my dogs trained right now as a part of special animal therapy for special children.
