We're so proud of how this "All-Boy" kiddo has been developing his ability to connect with the animals in a way that keeps everyone feeling safe, comfortable, and liking being with people.
He's pretty amazing; he can be running around the barn, throwing balls, playing on the scooters, or making Tik-Tok videos with the stick horses, THEN he sees an animal he wants to be with.
He slows everything down and makes eyeball-to-eyeball contact with the animal of his choice. When he 'feels' like it's right, he'll start petting, and again, when the time is right, he goes in for the hug. And sometimes even a kiss.
Even as adults, we often just want our animal friends to go right to OUR end game, with no prep.
It's amazing how 4-year-old Walker has figured out how to get exactly what he wants. In a way that's beneficial to all participants. Grateful to have people here who keep our residents loving people and trusting their home as their 'safe-place'.
