To all of you struggling (esp single puppy parents), hang in there!
After a big day at the dog park yesterday, my 7 month old husky mix is currently snoozing on my bed. Not long ago, she was incapable of settling outside her crate no matter how tired she was. She’s still not reliably napping organically, but it’s happening more and more often.
When she finished her vaccines in August, she was so scared of everything that even seeing her leash would send her scurrying to hide in her crate. Though she’s still pretty nervous and won’t go on walks in a busy neighborhood, now she loves her trips to quieter areas and is a hilarious goof with other dogs at the dog park. She’s even let a couple of humans approach her, which would have been unthinkable a couple of months ago!
She let me sleep in til 7:15 today!
