Gabrielle has always been good with animals and has always had a lot of interaction with animals. From her grandparents farm to her dog and cats at home, to the ponies and horses she rode at various equestrian clubs, to her own horse, she has always had close contact with animals. From the time we brought a tiny puppy home and she and her brother stayed up all night with him so he wouldn't be afraid until she left for college she always loved and cared for her dog and her horse responsibly. She achieved a very high level of horsemanship in her many years of riding. She is a very kind and caring and mature young woman who would be a wonderful caregiver for any dog, or any animal for that matter.
