What a difference a day makes! Chelsea is already feeling much more comfortable here, with the help of a few friends like Salty Dog. She slept through the night in her crate, is running outside when the others do, and has made friends. And she has already learned to run up the stairs! She was playing with my dogs, and took off following them when they ran up the stairs- she looked a little unnerved when she got to the top, like "did I really just do that?"! Going down will take a little more time.... I've started her leash training, and she has made great progress. The hard wood floors are scary to her though- she will scamper wildly across, trying to get to a rug or carpet, but I am feeding her and giving her treats only when she's on the floor and I'm confident that she will be a quick learner. The fact that she's food motivated, loves other dogs, and is curious are strengths in training. This girl will be a wonderful pet for a lucky family.
