More Guiding Eyes

Miss Caitlyn visited us this past weekend. She is a doll baby! We loved having her, although she sure wore Ella out! Caitlyn has the basics down; she is fine with staying in her crate off and on during the day and all night; she knows the basic commands; she let us know when she wanted to go out. We worked on manners but clearly more work in indicated. Poor Ella got the brunt of it; she had her ears and tail pulled, her lips bitten, and she was rarely able to catch a nap. She was a trooper, though, and never fought back. She did hold Caitlyn down to the ground a couple of times. She actually laid her own head across Caitlyn's neck, forced her to the ground, and held her there. Caitlyn never complained or got upset; Ella would hold her until she calmed down.
This weekend, we will sit the older pup, Eric. Maybe he will pull Ella out of the funk she has been in since Caitlyn left!
