Foster Baby



Dear all,

I'm writing to provide an update on Baby.
She is getting better & trusting us more by the day.  She is starting to learn that she is safe & loved with us.  She shows no aggressive/dominance behavior towards us or our own BT Taylor.  She shows no food aggression as she eats her own food.  Her coat & breath have improved much with regular water & kibble.  She & Tay walk together without problems.  In the house, they sniff & acknowledge each other but respect each other's space.

Early on, she didn't like being touched, but this has gotten better.  We acknowledge that she doesn't like to be picked up. 

She still displays some nervous energy, but this gets better every day.  She doesn't sit still at times, but we stick with her.

She is very spry & loves to be outside.

In the house, she sticks with us.  At night, she sleeps on a dog bed (hers now as it seems to comfort her) in our bedroom on the carpeted floor.

I'm attaching some pictures as she is quite photogenic.
