Thankful for Patience - Training in Progress

  
This week our pack is thankful for the challenge of getting along.
 
 
 Mama...why is HE out here???
Well Sunny, we want to show you Arty isn't as scary as you think he is!
 
 
 I don't think he's scary Mama, I just don't like his face!
Well Rosy, we think it's time you and Arty spend more time getting to know each other.
 
 
 Will there be cookies involved??
If you are nice and quiet and look at me when I ask, you can have lots of cookies!!
 
 
 Mama, what is SHE doing out here??
Well Arty, you and Sunny need to start getting along better if we are going to be able to take family vacations. We are going to start with you both hanging out together outside...and then we'll move inside and see what happens.
 
 
 I'll do my best to be patient Mama, as long as you keep those cookies coming!!
 
 
Cookies?? I might take on the challenge of being nice for cookies!!
 
From Mama: Many of you already know Sunny and Arty do not get along.  For the most part they still  live in different spaces, alternating times to spend with "the pack". We have decided it's time to get Sunny and Arty to a point where they can tolerate each other in a closer space.  We know if we don't introduce them to the idea of living in a smaller space together soon, we may never have peace or get to travel as a full pack in CeCe. Our goal to slowly get them to share a space without constant barking or fear of violence.
 
We know there is a chance one or the other may always need to be crated and we know they will never be able to be left alone in the same space, but we are determined and thankful for the challenge to be able to live in a more peaceful pack situation.
 
 

Thank you Brian for hosting the

  1. Hoping all goes well with this challenge. All fans of this blog would surely be thrilled to see the whole pack travelling together. But we understand that progress might be slow and will require patience. Best of luck!

  4. You can be thankful you have two humans to work with you as it makes it a lot easier. We also have the darn cats which cause all kinds of trouble with us getting along in the house. At least Olivia gets along with everyone and we do have solutions so we can all be together when supervised. Good luck you two, make it work.

  7. Sunny darlin' I've met Arty in the furs...he is super duper sweet and kind.
    I sure do hope you will try very hard to give him a chance. Such a mystery as to why you don't like Arty. Every being 2 and 4 legged have personalities that aren't always a good mix but maybe you two don't have to be BFF but you can be acquaintances so all can ride in CeCe.
    Hugs Cecilia

  9. We're hoping things work out for the best. Angel Joey and Chester didn't get along at first, and had a few skirmishes, but then became best friends.

  12. We think they both want to be alpha, and that doesn't work. I'm glad I'm in charge around here. XOX Xena
