I wanted to share with you my walk with Edith this morning. I have taken Edith out for a “walk” every day since she was approx 4mths old. She is now 14mths old and today was the first day I was able to go for a walk WITH her! I let Edith dictate how far […]
Hi Paula! Just a quick update. My niece is hanging with the girls this week due to an unexpected summer camp mixup. When Lily came over we started by doing the usual process (having Lily come thru the front door, clover in crate) and it was apparent very quickly that clover remembered her. Once clover […]
Edith is doing amazing, we took her to our local deli and had some lunch and after OSR she was really good. No one spoke to her, thankfully, and she was quite calm. Norman is still struggling with Lukas going outside, no matter which door they leave through. But if I can catch him before […]
Merry Christmas and again, thank you for all you do. We appreciate you so much! And by the way, this is huge, my brother surprised us again and came in yesterday when I got home from the sniff spot. This morning Ava was manic with her toy and I did OSR and she just laid […]
Hi Paula! Wanted to share with you another wonderful thing my boy was able to do this morning! I was out with him for a walk and an old Pyrenees mountain dog and owner were standing on the other side of the street and Norman did not even look at the dog and we did […]
Good morning Paula, I wanted to let you know that Norman is my boy and I am so, so proud of him. Saturday he took himself off to have a snooze in our bedroom (which he never does-he normally follows me around) and then when he woke up he came running in the living room […]
I also wanted to report that Norman had a wonderful complement yesterday……. I went down to the neighbors with him (they have known him since a pup) and they couldn’t believe how calm he was!! Of course I was beaming from ear to ear! I’m so proud of him!!❤️😊
As an update, Clover has been home with us. My mom is a great guinea pig since she’s pretty calm and unfazed by Clover and doesn’t try to get in her space. And she knows we are practicing with guests so she’s been willing to help. I’m pretty sure Clover remembered that last interaction with […]
Today I discovered that Norman loves a back scratch. He came over and sat on my lap with back to me. I asked if he was ready for scratches-we have been practicing- he didn’t jump off so I gently started to scratch his back and he leaned into it. I stopped and he looked back […]
Norman… I would consider myself an animal person especially a dog person after having a childhood filled with animals including my best friend Ben, a Boxer to my adult years where I was a Veterinary Technician and was old enough to have my own dogs. I chose to share my life with Border Terriers […]
