Mirren has been the perfect addition to our family and farmstead. Our local dog trainer referred to her as "thoughtful" the first time they met, and that description has really stuck. She is enthusiastic at work and play, ready for anything, and has an all-around fantastic attitude as well as the ability to chill. Gentle with people (including a special love for children) and other household pets, she also has a beneficial prey drive that helps immensely with livestock and keeping our rodent population down.
We have also had some fun learning agility with Mirren, although I jokingly call her the "slo-mo agility dog." Plenty fast around the farm, put her on a course and she masters every encounter, but is in no hurry about it!
