McKenzie's natural loving disposition shines through whenever she is around dogs. It is a joke in our house that whenever our GSP needs or hers her pulling up for a visit, it's a race to the door to see who she greets first us or the dog. She has a natural command yet loving tone in her voice when needed and dogs are very responsive to her. Our family had a planned long weekend trip not too far from home (under 2 hour drive) just about the time our senior golden was starting to show some signs of illness but refusing to eat on his normal schedule. I was hesitant to go on the planned trip, but she ensured me that she would come visit him, get him to be a little active and see what magic tricks she had up her sleeve to get him to eat. we rcvd several text updates through out the trip and were thankful she was there.
