Crime & Punishment

After having the New Dog in the house for a while, it angers & irritates me that someone could so abuse a dog. She cowers in fear when we attempt to feed her. She also scuttles after having gone to the bathroom. I have never seen a dog defecate so fast. Her previous owners must have slapped or beat her when she fed or pottied; and she fears men. It will be quite a while before she calms down enough to feel quite comfortable in her new home. But one good thing is that she seems to be keeping on the weight. Her ribs are not exposed as much!

Hubby is very patient with Harriet and the other night she came over to him and put her head by his couch. He allowed her to crawl up and sleep beside him for quite a while. She is still timid of being around him too much.

She is still attempting to play with the other dogs & I ran them around the kitchen again today- Bravo running, while Harriet watched. She wagged her tail a lot.

I just adore watching her stretch when she arises from a nap. She has the cutest stretch; just like a frog with her back legs. Will try to catch a picture of her while she is in mid-stretch.

Walked with the dogs outside several times. All the way down to the shop twice to get the mail, then back again. The new aluminum shovel came today via UPS. I am having to return the external hard drive, but Amazon will be exchanging it for a new one. Thank You Amazon!

Kelsey's hard drive worked just fine and she is in the process of uploading all her files. Lucky kid.
