krissn333 Posted March 8, 2014 Share Posted March 8, 2014 Today was Clarice's second meet and greet. Her first one went well but she did snarl at another greyhound who got in her face. Today it was VERY busy at the Petco we were at and there were lots of dogs there, greyhound and otherwise. I was armed with Clarice's favorite treats. To my surprise she happily walked up to other greyhounds and wagged her tail. No issues with other dogs sniffing her. I am still not comfortable with other dogs being in her face, but, Clarice sure did walk right up to a few dogs and sniff THEIR faces (which I also discouraged). At one point we were standing in a very big group of dogs. Clarice just stood there, wagging her tail among them. What I was SUPER proud of, though, was when I could see that maybe her anxiety was building a bit, she would look at me and I'd give her a treat We've been using a DAP diffuser in the house for about a month now and I just got an Adaptil collar for her on Thursday. I think they've really helped her. I can't begin to tell you how proud I am of her today. Now she's a zonked out little puppy.

My blog about grief The reality is that you will grieve forever. You will not get over the loss of a loved one; you will learn to live with it. You will rebuild yourself around the loss you have suffered. You will be whole again but you will never be the same. Nor should you be the same, nor would you want to. ― Elisabeth Kübler-Ross Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brianamac Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 Clarice is such a pretty pup, so happy to hear she's adapting to the M&G crowd! I think I'll always feel a special pull to her, knowing she's a Dubuque dog out of Corey's kennel (as are mine) Quote Bri and Mike with Boo Radley (Williejohnwalker), Bubba (Carlos Danger), and the feline friends foes, Loois and Amir Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
