Listen, you just HAVE to come to the party, I’m making too much food for you to not be there. Dolmades, stuffed croissants, crostini, veggie sushi…good lord, how will I cook this all?
And how will I fit it all in here?
Today I spent a good half hour talking to an animal behaviorist about Maddie. Got some very good advice. With that advice I spent 45 minutes walking in and out of my house pretending to leave. Except the problem is that the dogs kind of knew I wasn’t really leaving and just hiding at the side of the house listening for barking. I got an anti-bark monitor. The pheromone is helping her with the chewing, whining, pooping and peeing, but it does not help with the barking. We’ll get there, it’s going to take a lot of work, but we’ll get there.
She’s worth it, and besides, at this point I can not think of anything crueler or more horrible than making her start over again.
Besides, I don’t think there is anyone in the world who would treat her like the princess that she is.
Thank you for your emails…yes…photos soon.
