She is a lovely dog.... lots to learn though. She's very gentle and has loads of potential. A little skittish as she started barking at the billowing curtains in my bedroom this morning after Hubby left.... I think she was hoping that Hubby was there behind the curtains. She's very lean and very strong and loves to go for walks and is a total mooch so we will have to curb that habit. We will have to teach her not to pull on her leash. We will have to teach her to come to her name when she is called because she sneaked out the door this morning when I was letting the cats in. She came back but only because I coaxed her with food. Mind you, she slept by our bed all night long and trusted us enough to come up the steps which at first she wouldn't dare attempt because they are open and are daunting for a dog. She has tons of energy so we will have to teach her to be gentle because when you give her a bight to eat she snaps it from your fingers a little too eagerly. She did jump up on the bed last night when I went to bed and snuggled right down with me with her head in my armpit, but she wasn't too happy with Hubby when he came to bed twenty minutes later, and Hubby promptly planted her on her own bed which wasn't in my armpit! But she settled down and slept through the night without giving us any grief. This morning we took her for a long walk down through the trees and all was good.
It looks like she will be happy with us and we will be happy with her too. Awesome! It's a win win situation I think.
