# User story:
# Use a built-in ruby structure for pets (name, type)
# Harry is a dog,
# Rufus is a cat,
# Jane is a chimp,
# Sally is a snake,
# Ernie is a chimp,
# Melvin is a hamster

        "Jane"=>"chimp",

        "Melvin"=>"hamster"}

# Write a method to add a pet to the collection

# Given your current data structure, how would you add an age
# I would change the values in the hash to an array that stores both it's type and age.
