A New Friend

                                                                        
We had yet another visitor come to the house today.  Her name was Kim and FM said she would help her understand better what I was doing and give her more ideas on how to help me.  Gee I didn't know I rated so much help but man, this Kim person came armed with hot dogs!  Do you know they aren't much on their own but dip them in cream cheese and YUMMMO! (FM watches too much Rachel Ray)

Anyway this Kim seemed to be very peaceful (and a little sneaky) and knows dogs.  She had lots of good suggestions for FM and I decided I really don't have any reason to be scared of her.   She and FM talked a lot and a long time.  They watched me interact with the other dogs, watched me interact with FM with just them, me and Smokey in the room and then they went off into the back room to see my sleeping/eating quarters (my crate).   Kim is pretty smart - she said I was really cute so I know she much know lots about dogs!

So FM is already doing some different things and this Kim person just left.  Wow she must be powerful!!!    FM got us all ready to be fed and I saw her do something weird with my food.  No potions but she put it in a bowl and stirred it up with her hands.  Kim said she should try to put her scent on my kibble.  Weird but whatever.

Then when we all went in the room with the crates to be fed and I found my "spot" in the corner to wait to get picked up so I could get in my crate to eat.   Fm didn't pick me up like she has been doing, she kind of backed up to me and then stroked my chin and then picked me up.   While we were all eating then she went out and came back into the room with this rug and put it on the floor.  Kim told FM that maybe the reason I was so freaky when I "flew" out of my crate was because I was slipping and sliding around when I hit the floor.   She also gave her ideas on how to get me to not be so wild getting out of my crate.   It did help I have to say and I won't have to be so crazy when I get out.

Right now I'm trying to decide what to think of all the stuff that happened tonight.  Lots of cream cheese, little changes and I'm not quite settled.  I even lost my head a bit and put my feet up on FMs chair while she was typing this and everyone else was over there getting luved on!   FM said there is lots of hope for me.   Kim says there is hope for me.  I think they are right!!!!!
