“We travel a lot and hadn't been able to find a fit for our situation (being 900 miles from home!). Brooke came to meet us with our two golden retrievers and we liked her instantly. Our moody and spoiled 2 year old golden did too! She's got a great personality, shows up on time and we feel very blessed to have found her!”
