We want to welcome to our Walks & Wags client team, Alan Martin from Ellsworth, WI and his Husky, Mackenzie.
When we first arrived at Alan's home, Mackenzie curiously came out to inspect/greet us. She is definately feminine, genteel and pristeen in her manerisms.
Located on a multitude of acerage, Mackenzie can pretty much roam when she wants to, and that is what she is used to, but she also did very well on the structured walk with a slip collar lead we used on her. She responded well to our directions and even though she was not used to it, she did very well on the leash. She also loved her full body dog massage when we were done. :-)
Being a Husky and able to take a lot of cold, she is currently bedded just outside of Alan's temporary residency where she is very at home and comfortable. Due to artheritis, Mackenzie can't make it up the steps into the elevated house. She is very devoted to Allen but did quite well with Michelle when she came to walk her the first and second visits.
Allen may need to re-home Mackenzie this winter so she can live with a family that can take her inside on the excessively cold days. With all of the animal abuse going on now days, it does my heart good to see dog owners like Alan making every attempt to do what is right for his dog in order to accomodate the circumstances that are facing both himself and Mackenzie at this point in time.
Good Success to you Allen as you move forward in your journey and carry through with these difficult decisions. We look forward to our remaining Dog Walking sessions with Mackenzie while she is still in your charge.
