    I have a travel buddy, she's more like my little boss I'd say. She is super well trained and has more personality then most people I know. She has a sense of humor ,yes she does. She will even answer your questions with out barking. She stomps 3 times or circles completely around to the right for yes and if the moment calls for a hellzyeah she nodded up and down like a chubby kid for a cupcake.
