We are on day #11 of no potty accidents, and our shy little girl has started barking at strangers. She barked at a guest that came over Friday night and Chris praised her. Any type of assertive behavior gets encouraged right now. Today she started barking at people walking by on the street from the porch. We are 5 floors up! Silly pup! We can't correct her for it so we are just distracting her if she gets excessive.
Rainy and I went to a M&G today at the Christiana Petsmart. There were 2 separate greyhound rescue groups there and Rainy enjoyed meeting more of her own. Sunshine stayed safely at home with Chris.
Then Rainy got to go to Home Depot with me to make a return. I heard through the grapevine that they don't tell you to bring your dogs, but if you have a well mannered dog they won't ask you to leave. I read Rainy the riot act before we went in. She can get a bit whiny in new places and I didn't want to get kicked out for her whining. She was so cute and perfect. Only whined a tiny bit when we both got bored of taking to some employee. He thought gh's were high energy and unpredictable, so we got to show him otherwise and educate him a bit.
The other employees either looked at us and said "what a nice looking dog" or they just stared at us, but didn't say anything. No one asked us to leave. :)
Rainy was so proud of herself. There were no doggie smells so she knew this was a special place for her to be. Pranced around in a perfect heel the whole time acting like she had a job to do. I hope someday Sunshine will be this relaxed in new situations.
Onto today's pictures!
I cleaned up the dog toys/chewies form the crates last night and within 2 hours of being loose this morning this is what 1 crate looked like. Compliments of Miss Sunshine.
Redecorating is tiring!
Rainy says "Oh.. that's the spot!" She loffs Mommy's fingernails
Sunshine has decided the double bed is much nicer than the giant crate
Rainy prefers the big bed
