Hi there, blog

TGIF.

Haven't been posting much, I know. I notice 3 fairly recent posts hanging out in draft form. After clicking to see what the heck I wrote, I think "unpublished draft" shall remain their fate. The first had no identifiable point, the second made the same point 6 annoying times, and the third had a great big peach of a point lurking just beyond its horizon . . . but I'm not up to chasing it.

I'm making progress, DH is making progress, and the two of us are making progress. All of it's slow but by now discernible.

Would you believe that the dog has had a setback? It was totally caused by her people's worn and weary state. Poor sweetie received some confusing signals: Despite absolutely knowing better, we succeeded in reinforcing/cementing an irrational fear she developed by indulging it and throwing extra affection in its general direction. So now it's time to train away the crazy. It is so silly. Thankfully, the pup is a quick study.

And, I don't mind having an attainable goal to conquer. Nope, don't mind that at all.

It sounds like you have a good grasp of doggie psychology, according to Cesar Milan. I love his show, the Dog Whisperer. GL helping puppy.

I am glad that you are making progress. I can only imagine what you are facing.

Dogs are wonderful and great distractions.

Keep moving forward, sister.

Much love.
