13 - Molly Settling In

-
Molly is settling in to daily life with lots of new things to get used to.  She's still not sure of loud/unexpected sounds and actions.  We are also working with the kids so they don't disturb her during sleep (as she is not used to this).  Last night Molly did her first roach impression in the middle of the night (this was the first time at our house) and this morning played with toys for the first time as well (along with the zoom zooms) which were all good signs she is starting to acclimate to home life.  She's done very well on walks so far and has met multiple dogs with no issues.  She's also become our work companion as she tends to be very close to us during the day as we go about our business.  Waiting for that sunshine and dry weather so we can get out some more and explore!

16 - Molly Days

Molly has been slowly opening up to us each day a bit more.  Yesterday, unprompted, she sat down with the kids on the floor and laid her head on Suzanne's leg.  She did this about three times.  She's still does not like to be disturbed when she is sleeping so we've learned to leave her be.  We also found a bone she likes to chew finally as other ones we got her were not a big hit.  Although she loves all food, not everything agrees with her stomach.  Its been a bit of a struggle to find the right food for her but Purina Pro Plan Sport (suggested by Gail from GPAD) seems to be the right choice.  We noticed an immediate improvement.  I can't say it works well for every greyhound off the track, but for Molly, it certainly has.  Oh, and she chewed through two cords so far that were plugged in to the wall (thus our quest to find her chew bones).  But, with a face like this how can you stay mad?

9 - Precious Radar

When we go on walks with Precious, it is full radar alert time.  The ears go up, face forward, and the sight tracking begins.  There is not one sound she doesn't respond to.  She has exceptional hearing.  Not a big fan of trash trucks and school buses.  However, she's done really well with other dogs.  Interested, but non aggressive.  She's a good girl...
