Lily - 2 Week Update
Well, Lily continues to adjust to her new home. She is a very smart dog and tries to please.
Her “out-of-the-kitchen” response is near perfect. She seldom enters the kitchen when we are preparing food but she waits on the edge patiently for her treat.
It’s always fun going down stairs with two dogs especially when one prefers the left side, the other on the right and I’m in the middle. Hang on!!! cause they don’t stop!
Lily hasn’t figured out the cellar door yet. Stand on the left and the door swings right. Fenway always slips in beside her and pushes her to the right, into the door, so he can go first.
She is adjusting to the many strange sounds and is a good watchdog but for some reason never hears the meterman or the UPS truck. She is fearless and we thought that we might explore Agility with her. Time will tell
Lily has been getting better on-leash but prefers to stay away from loud vehicles and busy situations. She does a great sit / stay and down although she can be stubborn at times. We have to start her “recalls” but I think she will be good at that as well. Her training eval was delayed due to her UTI and recently discovered Giardia.
We brought Lily to the travel trailer this morning and she had no trouble climbing the stairs and exploring the inside. We might take a Fall trip if we think Lily can accept the new sounds that are present at campgrounds without barking.
