I had to laugh tonight. I was out playing with the dogs and both Chip and Bella when I first enter the run get so excited that they jump up on me to greet me. I try to discourage it, as that's just not good manners... but they can't seem to control themselves when I first enter. So anyway, tonight they both came rushing to greet me with Hickory right between them and all 3 jumped up to say hello! I don't know who was more surprised, Hickory or me! She jumped back down quickly and pulled back a ways, but she looked very pleased with herself and happy to see me.
I got my usual finger licks and she allowed me to pet and scratch her for a bit. She found out she loves to be itched on her back right above her tail... so now tries to position herself so I can do that. lol It feels so good to be seeing such progress from her.
