Bella (India), continues to be a beautiful little girl - who needs a haircut! She looked more like a golden when she came in September - now she looks more like a cocker. We're trying to find someone who does individual grooming rather than take her to a big place with lots of dogs. One groomer that I talked with suggested that we try to do it ourselves and provided information on proper equipment.
Bella has made great progress and has now accepted my husband (although she still won't go outside for him). She now runs up to my husband wagging her tail which makes him very happy. But she is by my side always, no matter where I am. She even carries around my slipper everywhere. She would not do well with new people and lots of commotion.
We continue to use a gentle leader as she still pulls hard when walking on a leash. She does fine when we're not home. She gets along good with our dogs and is even starting to play with them a little. She loves to run around in our back yard - especially if there is a squirrel to chase. She's a little sweetie who has come a long way in the past 3 months.
