Sarah,
3-Day update
Bella (Kate) is doing great.
You notice I said Bella. I
decided she is a really a smart girl and as I thought, by Day 2 she is
responding to “Bella”.
The ride home was
uneventful; she laid down about half way and chilled relaxing to CD “Dog
Ease”.
Day 1, she quickly retreated to
her crate when startled or not sure of herself.
I let her do that the first and second day firmly pulling her out when
it was time for walk. She quickly
learned what the long red line was for and now happily bounds to the door.
Day 1 and Day 2, the tail was still tucked but
by Day 3, not so much. She is really a
happy girl in the morning on her first walk and then jumps in her crate for
breakfast. I have not had to leash her
to me as I thought I would have to do, she now follows me all around the
house.
She has learned the frig produces
amazing treats and seems to always be there when the door is opened. Like you thought Sarah, she pushes herself
right in between the dogs when everyone is getting petted and wants her
turn. She is now coming up frequently
for just a pat on the head.
All in all,
she is doing great and has come a long way in just 3 days. My biggest problem seems to be that my Katie
wants Bella’s downstairs crate and Zeus wants her upstairs crate. So I frequently have to drag them out.
I took her up to my daughter’s house
yesterday. She has a fenced in yard, she
investigated a little bit and then lay down behind my chair.
She has begun to chew on some toys and will
get them out of the container. I took
her out by herself yesterday to throw a tennis ball but she was not
interested. I sure that will change
later on.
She is doing great and I am
very pleased with her progress. I will
send another update soon.
Thanks so
much, she is a gem…….Karen
