Testing, One, Two...

We get Pat back tonight! It will be good to be running on all cylinders again.

Josie is growing by leaps and bounds, literally. She's gaining weight -- five pounds since we got her -- and in size and ability to jump and run. All weekend, and today most of all, she is testing us more and more. More barking, more nipping/biting. Just now at lunchtime I had to make some more dramatic assertions of my being in charge, assertions that she continued to test with barks and even little growls. I made sure to come out on top, including having her on her back, exposing her chest to me -- I believe it worked, but I'm not positive. At any rate, she's pretty tired at the moment. I think she's enjoying the new crate pad that Michael and I got for her yesterday -- she chewed up the zipper on the previous (undersized) one pretty quick. At any rate, she sure looks peaceful now.
