yesterday I took Lizzie and Daisy over to my sis's house to play with their little bichon frise Rocky. I thought Daisy would do okay running around their huge yard, but that she would freak out inside my sister's house with all those kids and just the new surroundings (she's only ever been inside our house since we adopted her).
well, she did *awesome*. she was in a mode where she was so excited she kept forgetting to be anxious (don't get me wrong, she had her cagey moments, but she did not FLIP and run and hide and growl like I feared). she followed one of my nephews around a bit, licked the other one on the hand a couple times and let him scratch her chin for a sec, AND she actually sat up on the sofa with my older niece for about five minutes and *let her pet her*. This is *huge*. that's the only person she's ever let pet her other than Jeff or me (or the stealth pats people in our puppy training class would sneak in when she was distracted).
she did so great. proud doggy mama. feeling hopeful.
that's all.
