Can you believe we've had Cissy for 52 days now? What a difference in her in such a short period of time. Terribly dry, infected black skin now looks healthy and is silky and soft to the touch. Hair is starting to grow back everywhere, including on her tail! As for her appetite, she is not a dog that lives to eat, but rather eats to live. She doesn't care about treats, but has decided that "squeeze cheese" in a can is pretty good, even if it does have pills hidden in it.
I've no doubt whatsoever that Cissy feels right at home with us. She has even claimed one of the dog beds as her very own. And as you can see from the picture above, she is still (of course) letting us know her opinion about everything. But interesting, at least to me, is that she doesn't feel the need to really share these thoughts with Carl, who has tried to get her to 'speak' to him. I told him it's because she doesn't think that as a man he understands her, she may be right, I don't know. But as you can see in the video below, she thinks I understand her perfectly, and I think she's right.
Oh my gosh... what an adorable girl she is! Lovely conversation!! xox
