Thanks to you, Lulu’s transition has mostly been less complicated than we anticipated. She seems very familiar with a city environment, walks well around the neighborhood and likes being with (and respecting) a lot of people in our condo.
Thank you so much for all of your coaching and guidance with Lulu
