Session notes: 
Calli lives with my friend (and super sleddie foster human) Debbie so I get to see her out on walkies occasionally. There is something regal about Calli - I think it's her long neck and tall ears and something about how she carries herself when you see her move in person.
It was just me, Debbie and Calli during her session and she loved the attention and treats... and pets... and treats. Yes, Calli girl!

​Calli passed away December 21, 2021
