Should You Get a Pet for Your Child? The Truth Every Parent Must Know
Growing up in a Polish village, I never knew life without animals. Dogs, cats, cows, even hedgehogs were part of my everyday. Later, my children grew up with Goldy, our golden retriever, who became their gentle protector and best friend.
