Adoption Update: Meg -- now Razz!

Editor's note: Razz is the first MABCR alum to have her very own Blog. Please visit it at http://razzreport.com/


Hi Katy-
Thanks for writing! I was going to send you an email once her web site was up but it's close enough.
I've actually renamed her Razz short for Razzmatazz...Her web site is http://www.razzreport.com/ although I just have one photo up so far. I've got lots of video and other photos to post - I plan to have a ton up this weekend.
Everything has been going well. It took a few days, but her and Charlotte now play non-stop. They race around all day and all night. She's even gotten a little bit better about meeting other dogs outside. Meeting people, on the other hand, seems to be an absolute must. It's funny, sometimes she gets so excited to meet people she goes into a play bow and darts around.
I did take her to the vet and they thought she was very healthy. The tapeworm was cleared up almost instantly.
There haven't been too many issues honestly. She has peed inside the apartment a few times which is odd - but I should be able to resolve that shortly. The other totally bizarre thing she does is drool inside the car on car rides. Then as soon as she gets out it immediately stops. I'm not sure what it is but I'm guessing that will probably also end once she's a little more comfortable riding in the car - there will be quite a few car rides for her.
We start obedience 1 training on July 5th. My last border collie was a crazy ball of energy that had such low food motivation he'd spit treats out. I feel like going through training this time with Razz will almost be cheating - she's way too easy.
I'll send you a note when I post more to the site!
Talk to you soon-
David
