Peyton is a loving person who has the "dog whisperer" gift. She has amazed me with the complete transformation of her most recent rescue into a sweet friendly pup, from a terrified animal constantly barking in fear, pacing wildly and unable to even make eye contact - what a sweet spirit Flicka has now! I'm so thankful she was willing to welcome such a project dog into her heart and home! Peyton has been a trusted dog sitter and dog walker in her neighborhood since she was in elementary school (so I'm sure she has a long list of additional references!), as well as volunteering at the local shelters. She recently started a Dog Club at her college in Dallas to network with other dog lovers. She has a big heart, and I've seen her merrily manage a group of energetic dogs so effortlessly - she's amazing! I think Peyton loves dogs as much as people, or maybe even a little more!
