Jorge told me about a very funny thing that happened today. He was working on the weed-whacker, in the garage. Shadow was on a lead, attached to a tree in the front yard. Jorge looked out to check on her and saw a huge deer right near Shadow, simply grazing in the grass! Shadow wasn't paying any attention to the deer and the deer wasn't paying any attention to her. How funny is that?
We've tried very hard to train Shadow, but she balks at so many things (like not jumping up on people). The one thing that has seemed to click with her is that she shouldn't bother anything that's a "baby." This started with Snowflake (the ferret). Any small critter she sees is completely ignored because it's a "baby." I guess Shadow also felt the deer was a baby. She's so smart!
Have a great day!
