Since Socks' visit to the vet he's coming around a bit more. He loves to play with Shelby and they are almost inseparable...they're about the same age. Socks loves treats and loves to get his food and treats in the morning. Loves those treats though and takes them very gently. He's not agressive or grabby, he's very sweet. He loves to play and lie around with a nylabone or rawhide chewey. He really likes Mariah too and likes to spend quiet time with her. Shelby doesn't know what quiet time is usually. Socks is still leary of humans, but very nice. It's getting better, and after Christmas he should be better adjusted and comfy with strangers. He's great with me, but it's hard for him to feel comfy with others unless they are around him quite a bit. My older daughter is doing pretty good with him now, and he likes the baby(hers and my grandaughter Mazie) too. He just keeps getting better all the time. No accidents in the house since the deworming and his attitude is really good. He's great with the cats too. He sometimes comes upstairs with me and sleeps by my chair when I'm working....it amazes me how this dog has come around...he's easy to love...he will have lots of treats at Christmas and friends that love him to spend it with. He used to be the last one in the house and now he's the first, unless he knows a stranger is over. He's a really good boy...more to come...
