I feel a lot more relaxed since we agreed to keep Sky and when I go out am not worried about letting her off the lead. I know this is silly but when she was just a foster dog I felt so responsible to keep her safe, try to make her feel safe.Trying to give her the convidence to trust that would enable her to be adopted.
Now she is ours we have all the time in the world but suddenly she doesn't need it, she is just an ordanary little dog, just like Shula. She still does not trust other people but she trusts us so sits quietly with me while Shula enjoys the fuss. It would be nice if one day she had the convidence Shula has but no big deal. I remember how timid Shula was when I first got her but they are different dogs and have had very different experiences which no one knows about. One day at a time, at the moment Sky is less than three feet away from me which is usually where she is. Shula is in the next room, alone lying on the sofa, if I call she will come but she is happy where she is, I hope someday Sky will feel as secure.
