How is her separation anxiety doing?

Re: Lolita- any Mia updates

Hey!
You're back! I hope you had fun!

She is still having anxiety but i think its lessened a tad.

Wed i brought her to the bar with me. i gave her to my friend and went to throw somethign out and she screamed for me. this happened twice. i'm like "i'm right HERE mimi!"

but as far as leaving the house that is still annoying but has gotten better.
ive foudn that distracting her with a toy while i leave isnt what works. she is too smart. she knows what i am doing. and she still screams and cries at the door.
so now i let her watch me leave. i dont make a big deal at all and i just say "you be good now" and she still DOES go to the door but its mostly to whimper. if she does start to scream i stay at hte door for a minute and say "Mia, be quiet" and it usually quiets her down.

so, not sure how much progress that is, but every little bit helps.

she is also doing SOOOO much better on the potty training front. i said wednesday i think she is fully trained in the pee front and then of course she goes and pees on my bed. i think she may have just been excited though cuz it was right when we got home and she was saying hi (very excitedly) to Dharma.
pooing, she can go either way, use the pad or not.
as far as outside, she is GREAT she will usually always go when taken outside.
so, when we move to a place with a backyard i think that will HOPEFULLY be the cure of the training issue.

she is getting bigger! i think she is just about full grown now. she is 6 months old and probably 5 lbs. we shall see. she will be 6 months old on thursday.

here are some recent pics :)

Mia is so cute. Sounds like she is coming along. Are you moving out of Brooklyn? Getting a place with a yard??? Spill girl spill

Re: Lolita- any Mia updates

moving but just to a new place. one with a yard. staying generally in the same area though.

Awwwww, I love Mia! I'm glad she is getting a little better. Keep working at it. You're good to save her. How do your other babies like her?

Re: Lolita- any Mia updates

oh my god, the others LOVE her to death. its ridiculous. you wouldnt think after 3 they'd accept a new dog into their pack so quickly, but they did.

they play 24/7 which can get alittle annoying cuz they dont mind jumping hard into your lap to get to hte otehr one! lol

its a great little foursome i think.


how do hte boys like Bella now that shes been there a bit?
