Kelley is a Golden Retriever and her full name is "ten Eyck's Osterville Kelley by the Sea." She was born in West Falmouth (Cape Cod), Massachusetts. My niece Diana has her big brother Coby and she grew up with Kelley and Coby's great uncle Buddy who lived to the ripe old age of 16.
On one of Kelley's first trips to the vet, the vet remarked that it looked like Kelley was my husband's dog. I was a little insulted, but have come to realize that maybe he was onto something! If Kelley has the choice of being with me or him, she will choose him. I think it's because he takes her for a run in the woods the first thing in the morning and then gives her breakfast. I take her for walks (on a leash, of course) and give her snacks!
We haven't figured out yet which place Kelley like best around Acadia, but so far, the West Meadow at Little Long Pond seems to be in the lead. She loves playing ball and she is expert at finding any balls that other dogs have left behind! She enjoys being off leash and leaping through the grasses until the ball gets lost and left behind for the next dog!
