Ashley is such an animal whisperer! My seven(ish) year old Siberian Husky has fallen madly in love with Ashley, who has been care-taking Mahina during my travels. I'm gone half the year, and have had many friends come and give Mahina care.... But I can see the deep bond created with Ashley and it puts my heart at ease knowing she's actually CONNECTED while I'm away (not just being fed and pet!). I appreciate that Ashley is willing to take her on outings and explore trails and beaches with her too. I've seen other dogs, basically EVERY dog come running into Ashley's arms and just flop into the comfort of her! She's obviously got some kind hearted vibrations that the canines can pick up on. If you have your beloved pet under the honest and kindred care of Ashley, you've got one lucky animal.
