Kaylah's day

Tonight before bed, Kaylah had her first wagon pulling lesson. She caught on quite quickly and pulled it around our condo's parking garage twice. As with most dogs learning to pull a wagon, she is bothered by the shafts that bump into her on the sides, but our dog Bear learned to tolerate that after a few days.

Check out this video of Kaylah in action!


Fluffy Dog Rescue brought us two big bags of grain-free dog food for Kaylah, so her new family will be well-supplied for several weeks. We had success tonight feeding her remaining pills of the day hidden inside sausage chunks.

Kaylah had diarrhea last night in our living room. Today during lunch, I noticed her about to go again and rushed her outside just in time. Our own dog Bear is 100% housetrained except when he has diarrhea and can't control it. I'm assuming/hoping the same is true with Kaylah, because otherwise she's done all her business outdoors. Her new family will want to train her to signal when she needs to go out, which will help in situations like this.

We had visitors over tonight and Kaylah behaved well. When she begged at the dinner table, we tied her up on the other side of the room. She lay down quietly there while we ate and then enjoyed a walk around the block with us afterwards. She chewed on a bone this evening for the first time that we've noticed. Looks like she's starting to get more comfortable here.
