Hi Sarah,
Finn is doing very well here - we are delighted. He wouldn't leave the safety of the kitchen for the first day, but he has gradually expanded to the rest of the house. He's now mingling with the cats and is initiating some play with Cate. We took him for a couple of long walks and he really does beautifully on leash, little to no tugging. It's funny, he seems to feel more confident and secure on leash than off of it. I am really seeing what you mean about confidence building, and I've seen some progress ever day so, like you, I'm really encouraged by that. He's responding well to routine and tomorrow I'm going to start looking for a good local trainer or class so we can get some basic skills. I think he'll enjoy it and, at the same time, will gain more confidence from understanding what's expected of him. Does that seem like a good game plan for him?
Take care and, as always, thanks for your help!
Laurie
