It’s been quite an experience trying to win over 7 dogs all at once. They have an established pack and I’m a scary outsider. So kindness and patience are all I offer them. And it works. For awhile. 😆 Last night was, pretty good. It took a day of feeling them out, giving them plenty of space, and learning how to herd them up and down the stairs. By the end we had settled into a sort of truce, By the time we settled down in the bedroom, me in a chair, them on the bed and hot tub. I had given everyone treats, and those that wanted cuddles, like BamBam, and Jimmy (and briefly Sally!) just had to ask. Still, every time I moved or got up, a riot erupted. I fell asleep in the chair, and when I moved to the bed for the night the little ones opted for the tub or under the bed. And so we started again this morning, them over hyped and me trying to earn their trust. But we keep trying, because that’s what love is!
