Today Kai has her first vet appointment, well since she was spayed in West Virginia and had her first shots. I do not know how that went but we will see how today goes. I am pretty sure I will be carrying her into the vets office.
I have once again tuckered her out. She had a great time rolling around in the snow and trying to catch snow she tossed with her nose. Did not want to go for a walk at 7am but waited until 1130 to do a whole circle around the block. Got a little spooked by an ambulance full wail, but calmed down after it passed. We have been around the block several times and I may take her further down the street to see how she does. She has better hearing then I do and when she is scared sits right down and refuses to move. I was told to let her sit at this stage, reassure her and see if she will continue walking, if not to turn around and head in the other direction.
Yesterday, she met two new people and except when the one person scared her accidently, Kai did not bark, but greeted them. I am trying to work on her manners by not having her jump on people but Katy, my daughter loves when she jumps on top of her, so we are having some teaching problems. THe great thing is that she sits when I tell her to without having to press down on her but, she likes being called a good girl but more importantly she likes snacks. We are working on stay.
Bad though is that she has decided that everything is a chew toy. I had to remove the table cloth because everytime she went by it she jump and grab it, for the fun of it. I keep trying to get her interesting chew toys, but I think she likes it when I say no. We have also been playing fetch, but she still does not think I will give it back so she comes close but stops just short of me. Ah, well. It will get better. I am amazed at how much she has learned so far, with only being with us 4 days.
