So Far, So Good

The crate is back to being okay again.  At least in the world of Zuzu.

Of course she hasn't been locked up in it, so that's probably why!

The week of no doors, but food in the crate, went wonderfully.  She even progressed from sticking just her head in the crate to eat, to having her whole body in the crate while she was eating.

Yesterday, we added one door.  She still went all of the way into the crate to eat!

The even better news is that she has not yet destroyed anything when we leave her alone without being locked up.  We lost one piece of a window blind, but I think that got bitten off while we were out doing yard work and the kids were inside with her.

Her nose is even starting to look a little bit better, though I am beginning to wonder if fur will ever grow back where her scabs are now.

So, "Zuzu-Life" is pretty cool for now.  We discovered the laser pointer this week - too fun!!

And she's getting a few more visitors than normal sniffing around the yard, which she enjoys and loves to bark at through the windows.  I'm glad she was sound asleep when the stray German Shepherd was patrolling our back fence this morning, or she would have gone crazy.  She definitely misses play time at the dog park, but we'll wait until after Labor Day to head back there; both for the weather and to avoid any potential boyfriends.  Think we could figure out something similar for Darby?
