Dog Days

Kaylee was fond of Terrapin at an early age and then when she became more aware of her surroundings...she has become scared of her. She grips on to us tight and sometimes screeches! We have been slowly reintroducing Terrapin and calling her "nice doggie" and Kaylee has been responding well. She will slowly reach out her hand to touch her, pull back, and then back out to pet her. It is really funny to watch her hesitate and rethink whether or not she wants to pet Terrapin. I think Kaylee's biggest issue is the size of Terrapin, she is okay around smaller dogs. Last night was a big break through, Kaylee was more comfortable touching Terrapin right away. But the funny thing is...now Kaylee puts her tongue WAY OUT when she sees Terrapin...just like Terrapin does! We are talking way out, not what she normally does. It is hilarious. Kaylee isn't 100% comfortable just yet, but wanting to touch and now mimicking Terrapin we are on our way. Not to mention Kaylee's HUGE growth spur the other night, she will be taller than Terrapin in no time.
