I heard a tip about how to break up a dog fight and that is to grab his tail and pull him away from the other dog. So today I attempted this and it works quite well. I was able to pull Sam back quite easily. The only difficulty with this approach is that BOTH dog owners need to be doing it. Poor Sam.
Whitney stopped by yesterday for a photo session. She's so adorable. She couldn't get close enough to me. I had a split second to snuggle with her, back up and take the shot before she was inching herself toward me to give me some kisses. She doesn't have the best hearing so there was a lot of floor tapping going on, which was driving my dogs a little crazy. Tika and Sam were designated to the mud room so I could have some time to focus on Whitney. I took so many shots that I think I tired the poor girl out. It wasn't long before she had the heavy lids and curled up in Tika's bed. Too cute.
