stonebenderWe had a guest at our place this week clever_doberman's Dobie Misha. Misha has visited a few times, so we knew she got along with Gilly. I was a little worried about being alone with the both of them all day. As with most dogs, that don't hang out with me, I'm pretty much a non-entity to Misha. I can't play with her. I can't pet her. I don't feed her, what good am I? So handling her if she misbehaved was a concern. dbubley helpfully took them both during the day and Carol and I got "the girls" in the evening. It was lots of fun having Misha around for an extended period of time. She seems to have figured out that I'm somebody to interact with. She gives me some good morning kisses in the morning. Gives my hand a quick hello lick when she's taking the house tour. I got her to give me a kiss on command and she sits for me. It was fun to see her sorta figure out, oh, he's people too and not just furniture.

Date: 2007-03-06 03:23 am (UTC)I hadn't realized what a difference it would make for her to have a 24 hour experience of you and your household. and getting spoiled all day by Bubley also helped, so much so that when Loracs left my house after dropping Misha off, Misha cried at the door for a bit.
here she is, looking wild-eyed, last year during construction (click on it for larger image):
