Now Timmy? Timmy had to check me out. He circled wide a few times until I sat on the floor. He eased a bit closer to a sniff, then retreated to mom's legs. As soon as we went outside the pressure was off (whew!)and Timmy decided maybe he could come a little closer.
Dad was sure a comfort though. Lean and grin while getting scratched . . . that'll make anybody feel better.
Timmy did really terrific for being such a shy dog. After being a foster for over a year, he's found his forever home with his foster parents and slowly and surely he's getting more comfortable in his new home. Shauna, you guys have hearts of gold - bless you for taking him in.
Timmy is doing so great, that just 3 weeks later when I came back with all my stuff to show the photos, Timmy did terrific. Came right to me and let me scratch right away. Couldn't you just kiss on those ears all day long!?
At the end of our session Shauna got out the almond butter. Bubbles was all about that and was quite happy to work on the jar for a while.
Bubbles also likes watermelon. Whoever heard of such!?
oh, my heart just melts when i look at timmy on the couch. i can't believe he was so relaxed around you! dogs know a good heart when they see one.
