Good afternoon.
Finally crashed this morning around 6 a.m and got a good 8 hours of sleep.
I recently read on a website, the Ontario SPCA site actually, about introducing dogs to each other and bringing a new dog into your home and stuff like that. It says they will determine for themselves who is dominant and who is submissive and they'll be happy with that. Its the natural order of things. It says us humans should not interfere. That was kind of difficult with Penelope and Bear. We were all (well all except Hubby) confident that he wouldn't actually hurt her, but, I know if he did, Big R would never forgive me. He did accidentally step on her, twice, when they were running around and she cried out (she's very tiny). He growled at her any time she went near me, his food, or his toy. When we tried to give her her own toy, he wanted it, so we had to put it away, he would have trashed it in seconds. It was very funny to watch them. He doesn't have the best manners, but at the same time, he wasn't that bad either. And she was pretty smart, she would hide from him in places he was too big to get at. She followed him around, sometimes he would tolerate this and sometimes he would turn around and snarl at her. He gave us a couple of scares where he sort of barked and lunged at her, but, he wouldn't have bit her or anything, he was just telling her to back off. Of course Hubby freaked out, (he really needs to read that website) and yelled at my poor guy. My only regret is not having the video camera on them and filming their silly doggy antics. Oh well, next time.
I realized last night that I probably give the impression I don't like Big R's boyfriend. I don't mean to give that impression. I noticed I never hug him, which is strange. I didn't introduce him as her boyfriend yesterday. In my defense, I think I do that subconciously on purpose because I don't want to seem pushy. Even though they do live together and he has given her a ring and they say they plan to get married some day, I'll believe it when I see it. It's weird, it's like I'm afraid of getting attached to him. I think I got attached to her previous boyfriend and then they broke up. So, just to be clear, I DO like him, even if it doesn't seem like I do. Hehehe.
So that's them, the loves of my daughters life, Isaac and Penelope. Cute eh?
Ok I'm off to watch a Christmas movie and play some euchre. I'm gonna try to get a photo of Little R with all her prize ribbons at some point.
Have a great evening.
