One of these days I'll share more of her journey. *Dakota has made
amazing progress, not always easy progress but she has come so far in
her journey. *She brings us a lot of joy.

In the beginning, joy is not the word I would have used... LOL!

So glad she is coming along, I love to here good stories of people
working with their dogs.
