These dogs clearly have a language of their own. May I introduce you to Hanz, a Schnauzer who belongs to My Special Man. Hanz and my Lily have become very good friends. And, they can be very entertaining. After we ate dinner last night, I gave each of the dogs a chew bone to settle them down so we could sit, relax and watch a little TV. They played "yours is better than mine" for about five minutes until they actually traded bones and continued to merrily chew away until they completed eating them. Now, don't you think they have conflict resolution skills pretty well perfected?
They have been referred to as "The Lady and The Tramp" by our friends. For the most part, Lily is quite "the lady" and when it comes to Hanz, he is the robust "man of the universe". However, he has a few idiosyncrasies like not going through a door unless it is open enough for his whole body to go through. Go - figure. But, - - - - - Lily is perfect. Now, wait a minute. What about how she runs like a dart to explore the neighborhood if she can get out of the fenced yard.
This is when they were "negotiating" the exchange!
Let's make up and kiss! OK.
Take care of your self and your dog. They bring so much joy to our lives.
