it seems that it is now all about maddie…we really are so much in love with her….she is as stubborn as she is smart…
but, i out-foxed her…I got a leash that attaches as a harness and now i have the upper hand…..yesterday we went for a walk where she walked right along side of me…like a good-old-girl…..
yesterday we went to the reunion of Critter Cavalry in Plainville at Penny’s house.
It was wonderful to be with so many lovely people and so many lovely dogs….I met a young woman named
Jasmine from Coventry, ri and I think I am going to meet her to see if “I” can be trained………….
All is well and this is a short note to say that Maddie is returning to work at my city office later today….I gave
her a week off last week until we were better acquainted with how to adapt her to the leash….Recently, I was talking
with BERNIE about the leash and she appeared in front of me in sit and alert mode, wagging her tail…i realized she had recognized the word leash.
