That is totally Olive and I don't think I've heard such a deep growl out of her until we've stayed in a hotel room and she was in clear protective mode in "our space". I'm thinking of bringing Elroy for a 1 night hotel stay next weekend just to expose him to all of the different things when there is a weight pull there and they have weigh in at "stupid o'clock".People talking outside the room, she would growl. But out and about in a strange city? No problem. Elevators, stairs, traffic, lobbies, patio restaurants laying under the table, strangers talking to us, all good.
