Furry Reflections w/ Ivy Higa

Yorkies may be be small dogs, but they can have big impacts. Ivy Higa’s own “Brooklyn aka Mr. Aloha” is prime example. After going through a tough time and breakup, Ivy got Brooklyn – but little did she know how things would change. Through the eyes she looked at him, Ivy began to look inside herself. She realized how she wasn’t treating herself and her value with enough respect, and that the way she felt Brooklyn needed to be treated (with love and respect) was the way she deserved to be treated, too. And if you’re wondering where the “Mr. Aloha” part of his name comes from, that’s because Ivy is originally from Hawaii. Although, as you can guess, now calls Brooklyn home (in more ways than one).
