Casey is just like her mom -- strong, smart, driven but also extremely friendly and very cute. She's very fast, and dispels the musher's myth that red dogs can't run. She has an addiction to birds (big birds in particular), so can get a bit distracted. She's got a lot of power and is even faster than Holly. While Holly wanted a wheel dog, we got another lead dog. (Sorry Holly--but the three girls do look great together -- and we do let Holly lead.)

[Casey is named for the red-headed puppet seen in the center of this image: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Mr_Dressup.jpg]
