I've been feeding the dogs with Sheba's gate closed and Paige's gate open. Fine. All was well, the dogs were hungry and got right to their respective turkey necks (which by the way each weigh about a pound!). When they were both done I let Sheba out. As usual she made a bee-line to Paige's dish to check it out and lick it clean (like it wasn't already!). For the first time, though, Paige went into Sheba's run to check out and lick out Sheba's dish! Every time Paige acts more like a "normal" dog (or rather a dog that had been brought up normally) I want to get up and dance!
On a sadder note, we just found out that Sheba has hypothyroidism. This would explain her litter that went bad this summer. Of course there's no way we are going to try to breed her again and she will be on medication for ever. It's not a catastrophe, but it is sad. She'll get spayed later this year.
