Ginger Update
For the last week, I spent all my spare blogging moments working on the Homeschool Carnival. Now that it is posted, I can update you on how things are going with Ginger and a little bit about what we have been up to.
Ginger is doing better with sleeping (well except for last night, but I guess we all have off nights...) She is sleeping up to 4 hours before waking up and then she goes back to bed within a few minutes after going out and taking care of business. But when she wakes up around 5 or 6, she is ready to be up for today.
Here are some photos...after all, they always speak more than words...
Friday night, Katrina and I enjoyed a fun event at our church - Mother/Daughter sleepover (more on that later). Daniel was out of town, Jack spent the night with a friend and our favorite kid sitter became our favorite puppy sitter for the evening. Ashley and Ginger got along just great!
Katrina and Ginger enjoy some relaxing moments together.
Check out those long legs...you should see her run!
Of course, after running, she is pretty tired out!
Okay, Mom...that's enough pictures already!
Today Katrina went to visit her friend, Annie. And Ginger was invited along to meet Annie's 10 month old Pomeranian. This is the first dog Ginger has met since coming to live with us. At first, Ginger was terrified and kept trying to get away while Sweetie wanted to meet and greet in the way that dogs normally do. But within about 15 minutes, the two of them were running, romping and jumping. This lasted for about an hour, but then Sweetie decided she had had enough. Ginger had asserted herself as the Alpha dog of the two of them and Sweetie complied, but after awhile, Sweetie didn't look like she was having fun anymore, so we separted them. However, below you can catch some more shots of them having fun.
Taking a break from play.
Getting ready to pounce!
Not sure what these girls are up to here...but Ginger looks like she is showing her dominance.
Ginger -
You are doing a fantastic job of training in your new family! They really seem to have gotten the idea about always providing you with a playmate, as well as the most comfy couch in the house.
Also - kudos on getting them adjusted to your schedule - sometimes those first few weeks of having a human can be the most trying for a puppy.
You're showing a real talent for it!
Love Chewy
