Thank you all for cheering Keira on as she settles into her new life with us.
One of my biggest worries with dogs like Keira is her escaping because she's skittish and she would be hard to find and catch. So when I don't see her with the other dogs, I feel an instant panic. Then I begin a bit of a frantic search everywhere. I know it's irrational, because my rational mind is reminding me that everything is secure, and there's no way she darted past out the door.
But the irrational voice in my head is louder and I am searching everywhere inside and out and calling her. Which I'll add that a raised voice scares her a little bit.
And then, I stop because I see her. Doing what I call "hiding in plain sight." This time it was behind the coffee table. In dim light, she can be hard to spot. But there she was, watching me and probably wondering "what is wrong with that lady?" Can you see her??
