Annabelle

Things are going pretty well with Annabelle(Abby). We have had a few squabbles over food - she doesn't like Lucy to get too close when she is eating or when she has a bone or chewer. I called Rikkele because Abby got one of Lucy's chewers as soon as she got here and then snarled at Lucy when she came near her. She suggested just letting them have them when they are in their crates and that seems to be working okay. Lucy is a little jealous and Abby is a little skittish so we have some things to work on. My husband and brother already prefer Abby because she is so quiet and well mannered. Poor Lucy! Talk to you later! Emily **2nd Update** I thought you might like an update on Abby. She is doing great! We can't believe how easy this transition has been so far. She fits right into our family! She loves to go for walks with Lucy although she doesn't have quite as much energy! We did have to resort to giving Lucy some "calm down" pills for a few days - she was driving Abby insane. Now they get along wonderfully - most of the time. Lucy is just relentless in her desire to play and Abby has to let her know when she has had enough. Abby isn't startling as much as she used to and her tail isn't down all the time either. Both are pretty good signs I think! Thanks so much for all your help! Emily
