Little Dog in a Big World

Archive for the ‘9 Months Old’ Category

Misha turned 9 months old today.  It’s amazing to think she’s been in our household so long.

She is maturing.  Her understanding of commands is getting better.  She no longer runs around and attacks everything.  The chewing has settled down.  Though, her stuffed animal chewing has gotten more destruction.  I’m constantly sewing up legs and noses.

I continue to work on her training in small doses several times a day.  She still has some fears to get over.  She absolutely hates to be wiped off with a towel and snarls when the towel touches her.  She is still skittish with noises outside.  If we are walking and a neighborhood dog barks, she panics.  She also plays a little too much with her mouth still.  I still have my work cut out for me.

She is getting a little easier to live with.    And, hopefully, each month I’ll see improvements.
