dyk you could call me mom but it would mean you have to stop slamming doors and start wearing panties to the dinner table.
dyk Barlow and I play tug a lot
dyk its good exercise, for both of us!
dyk i have to love his optimism
dyk Barlow never wins at tug, but he keeps playing.
dyk Barlow also plays a great game with John and I that we call "Vegetable"
dyk I cut up carrots, celery and whatever other veggies are leftover (broccoli stems and other stuff I would otherwise throw away work great)
dyk John and I stand about 50 feet apart and take turns calling Barlow to us with the "Barlow, Come" command
dyk when Barlow gets to the caller, he is then commanded to sit or lie down (we vary it).
dyk Shiloh cowers or run whenever any one had anything stick, rope, or cord like in their hands
dyk and if you throw something - forget it
dyk she does have this one squeeky toy she'll kind of tug of war on but as soon as you tug "hard" she drops it and runs away
dyk I'll work on the slamming of doors.
dyk but DH likes the panty situation as is.
dyk we know that Shiloh was pretty well abused before she was rescued and was then left alone for the most part (taken care of but she was in with about 8 other pups that were rescued who we aren't sure were abused or not - the most of them were engaging, outgoing and playful so we think perhaps not)
dyk I don'tknow why I picked Shiloh - she was just the one that called to me even though she was tucked away in a corner, cautiously watching, lol
dyk we know it could take her a year or two to unwind and learn to trust.
dyk it sounds like she is making a lot of progress!
dyk I had a particularly poorly timed one last night; poor DH.
dyk I can only imagine, lol...
