Life is Good


Annie Rose has been with us for four days and she's doing great. As you can see, she does have a furniture habit. While we discourage fresh track dogs from picking up this habit, it's something she learned at her first home and it would be hard to break her of it.

She loves toys and throws them in the air and spins around and playbows with them. My hounds are sort of amused by her but still reserving judgement as to whether they should join in the fracas. Over time, I think they'd all learn to play together.

Her crating lessons are going well. She's still a bit reluctant to go in, so we sweeten the deal with high value treats such as cheese or ham. Once she's in she's fine. And she's been more than happy to eat her meals in there. I added some extra padding to her crate bedding and made a bolster for her to lean against. she likes that a lot.
