He did great during the holidays. After initially barking quite a bit when family was here, he settled down upstairs in his room, coming down once in a while to check on things and make sure I was still here. I'm always being watched.
I will say that I reached a very high stress threshold right before Christmas because he still refused to walk outside. I was totally worn out and couldn't take much more physically. So we decided to take the jump and have a fence built. It was installed on Christmas Eve and has made a world of difference. Both Danny's and my stress levels have completely dimished!! Danny now goes out back and does his business and even initiates play with Lacee. Now I can slowly start working on his walking outside, without the stress of pushing him. We can take our time. Life is good!!!
It's so wonderful to see him happy and adjusting to our family. He still doesn't play much, so I need to figure out what I can do with him in the house to keep him busy. He's just so content to just be with me, that I don't worry too much. I think he's happy just to be clean, warm and loved finally.
Lacee is definately still #1 and doesn't let Danny forget it. They will play a little together, but then she puts him in his place and he goes off to his sleep spot.
I've attached a few updated pics. In one of them, Danny had taken a seat cushion off the desk chair that is in his room and, well you can see for yourself. Don't let his innocent face and beautiful eyes fool ya. He can be a devil when he wants to!
Danny knew he did something wrong.
He likes to sleep on the bench in our bedroom once in a while.
But he has to share with his Daddy when he's getting ready for work in the morning.
Enjoying the backyard!
Just a beautiful face! Those eyes!
A good pic of them together.
Can we go in yet?
