Bea: My Margret, the Kittens are out of control. They went upstairs and into the kitchen plus Gus tried to go out on the pup porch. Good thing Bessie herded him back in! Aren’t you going to do anything about it?!?!

Gus and Graham: Oh Bea there is so much to explore and play with, more than we even realized! Why didn’t you tell us?!?!

Graham: Hey Gus come look at Bea.
Gus: Why is she just curled up laying there?
Graham: We must have worn her out. Think maybe she’ll let us snuggle?

To be continued….

Hey Graham! You’ve got to see this!!! ~ Gus Kitty

Note: This morning Bea let me know by taking the end of the leash out of my hand that she no longer needed to be leashed when with the kittens. She was right. Scruffy is still learning that Bea just wants to play with the kittens, and barking to let me know that Bea is by the kittens isn’t always necessary. Redirection for both dogs in the form of learning to shake is proving to be sucessful. Scruffy is offering her paw more often to be shook and Bea is moving from shake to high five. Graham still doesn’t like “dog germs” and will vigorously lick any spot that has been sniffed. And Gus, well that sweet boy is getting braver and braver. Progress! 💕

I like playing with the kittens, especially when they knock things off of the table for me. But I’d rather play ball now. ~ Bea Pup
