Tango's first 5 days....
I can't believe that she has been here for 5 days now!!!! Mind you she has slotted in so well (touch wood) that it does feel like longer.
Tango adores my son and OH...she likes me a lot, but she prefers the males of the house, which is good really as I am officially Cosmo's!
She gets on well with Biff and Cosmo.Biff is now being subjected to her face licking whenever he wanders past her and he seems to like it.
Cosmo just thinks she's brilliant. They do play a lot...but not toooooo much, they are also happy to settle (so far).
She hasn't got a lot of stamina with walks at the moment...she likes to amble! I have taken her to our local small park the last couple of days and at points there was no one in so I took the lead off. (I have her on a strong flexi and harness when I take her there). She has basically followed me around...and if I wander away, she trots back. This definitely wouldn't be the case if there were people around.
Tanog LOVES people...I am convinced if I can stop her jumping up, that she would make a fab PATdog. I have purposefully walked her past quite a lot of people today as she tends to pull to get to them, I have been calling her and rewarding her when she looks at me with hotdog and then tickles until the person has gone. Earlier she saw someone on the other side of the road, went to move towards her, then stopped and turned to me with her tail wagging...bright as a button it would seem.
Other than the one toileting accident the other day (our fault) she has been clean in the house. She sleeps through and her scratching (which I think is a displacement activity when she is worried) is settling down nicely.
We feel exceptionally lucky to have her in our lives.
Look no lead....
Moving in for another tickle!!!
PLaying...blurry but they do pick up some speed!!!Cosmo goes into zoomie mode and initially she just sat and watched him...now she tries to catch him!
Thanks for looking
