> While these trips are a dream come true for the sweet dog, Megan feels she is the lucky one. Taking Nala to meet her favorite princesses is a small token of gratitude Megan is happy to give. Every hard-working professional deserves a fun-filled vacation, including our four-legged friends.

> "A balance is important in working dogs. That's why I believe it's so important that she gets to have fun at Disney, too." And clearly, she does. Keep up the great work, Nala! You're such a good girl!
