He will cover you with his feathers, and under his wings you will find refuge; his faithfulness will be your shield and rampart.

Addi Girl

So we've been a little busy these past few days. Its been almost a week since we brought "baby girl" home from PAWS Chicago.
She is as sweet as can be. Such a lover, and just as lazy.
She is doing great! We are helping her along with some potty training issues, but she seems to catch on pretty quickly.
I can't say the same for separation. She really is having a hard time when we leave her alone for more than an hour.
She is only 7 months, so I'm hoping this is something she will grow out of once she builds up some confidence. She is still just a pup and after a stressful ordeal of a vet visit, exploratory surgery, abandonment by her owners, and a couple weeks spent at a kennel waiting for an adoption I'm sure it's pretty understandable that she have some separation anxiety.
We're gonna try a daycare where she can socialize and get used to being away from us for a few hours.
It's really like having a child. They need constant supervision, a food and potty schedule, and lots of love and attention. It's so rewarding though. She loves to snuggle. Aside from the little issues we are working on with her, it is comforting to know we have a pretty well behaved dog. (Compared to our last beast. Poor Wrigs.)
Well, here she is....
