Among all people I've met in my life, there is no one that establishes a truer connection with dogs than Kiki. Not only is she a great doggie playmate and friend, but she is also extraordinarily attentive to a dog's every need, even during the most inconvenient of times. Kiki has spent countless hours caring for, walking, feeding and training both puppy's and older dogs as well. I specifically recall many instances where she stayed up several (entire) nights taking care of her family's newborn terrier. The pup needed frequent care and instant attention during all hours of dusk, and Kiki was constantly by his side, comforting baby Darcy in her arms until the sun broke the horizon. If I had to choose one person to care for my dog, it would unquestionably be Kiki Shim. Not only is she an excellent caregiver of dogs, but also an excellent person. I believe her passionate connection with all pets is a clear testament of the latter.
