Meeting the neighbors.

Dog Park Adventure

I went to a dog park the other day with some friends and my 2 of my family's dogs. First time here and it wasn't bad. Lots of dogs around, but I didn't care. It was fun to get out and see new places. Until...I saw that camera! I DO NOT like cameras. They freak me out. Which explains why my foster mom hasn't posted many of me

Here I am with my 2 family dogs, Ali, the black tri color, who was a failed foster that they adopted and her sidekick Sienna, the liver and white one. I'm the same color as Sienna.

Happy 4th of July

Hi Everyone,
Just wanted to say, that I hope you all are enjoying the Freedom that this day brings us. I know I am. I must admit though, that I really don't like having my picture taken so it's hard for my foster mom to get any of me.

Update June 27th

She has finally warmed up to hubby, being more active with stuffies, and even ran and picked up a tennis ball last night in the yard. She likes to greet you with a wiggle butt, or Setter hug. She's tried to talk, but doesn't have the "roo" down yet. She is still a little protective of her food, but was able to eat with the others one night in a group setting without any problems. She gets really excited for her frozen chicken leg or wing and loves natural dog treats, not Milkbone types.

 

Update From My Foster Home

Lynn has been in our home for a month now. When she came she was shy and didn't interact with the 4 other dogs in the house. She showed signs of being Alpha. Food protective and would stand and stare at what appeared to be at nothing. She didn't know how to sit in your lap and when picked up and put in it, would sit stiff.
In this past week, she has warmed up to human contact, reacts to her name, venturing outside in the yard more on her own, coming to you for petting, has jumped in my lap once and stayed comfortably.

She gets very excited if she thinks she is going for a walk, rides well in the car, has started picking stuffed toys from the toy basket, but doesn't play with them. She loves attention, but not needy for it. Sleeps on a dog bed through the night, but will stay in her kennel as well. She is fully housebroken and will go to the door when she wants to go out. She gets really excited for her dog treats and will sit when asked in order to get it. She doesn't get on furniture very often and seems more content to lay on a dog bed or floor. She still will try to be Alpha, but has never shown interest in fighting for it. If told "no" she will stop. At the moment, she still doesn't show interest in playing with other dogs, but in her defence, mine haven't shown interest in pursing it with her either.

If you are looking for a quiet dog that loves to go for walks, Lynn would be perfect for you.

Progress Report

Lynn (aka Lynette) is now in another foster home in Illinois for her vetting/spay. She came to my home one week ago and is adjusting to another new place. She is quite, and is learning the routine. Come back again, for another update in a couple weeks. Thanks for stopping by.
