ENRICHMENT NOTES:01/22/18
Lying in cubby, body neutral and ears forward. Allows petting along head and body while leaning in and raising tail each time my hand passes along her back. Round and sweet – has potential to warm up!
01/23/18
Lying in cubby, body relaxed. She scent marks her cubby wall as I reach towards her and steps out towards me when called. She allows petting along her head and body while leaning in with energy, tail raised and quivering. She rolls over onto her side and scoots forward. Rolls all over kennel floor while leaning against my arm. Very sweet and affectionate, stands up and kneads with front and back paws. Continues to knead after interaction has ended. Doing much better!
