Happy Endings

Cat Loving HART dog, Concha, finds loving home with Peggy and Pat

 

 
 
Concha is very happy in her new home.  She has tried to flex her muscles a few times:  with other dogs, with Fifi, and yesterday, with Pat.  The great thing is that we discovered the GENTLE LEADER and she has responded extremely quickly and well to it.  She is figuring out who is boss. She learns quickly, wants to please, and is so very loving.  I have no question that we found the perfect dog for us.
 
She has turned out to be quite the hunter.  We moved up the hill from our old house, and we are closer to wildlife.  She grabbed a mouse on the patio the other day, killed it  mercilessly, and is quite obsessed with baby rabbits, ground squirrels, or anything that moves. 
 
We are grateful for the Gentle Leader, b/c it helps to manage her with the leash. This is important, b/c Concha gets walked about 1.5 miles, 2x/day.
It also serves as a reminder to her that she is NOT the boss.
 
Attached are photos w/Concha in our new little home, together with Fifi, or Queen La Fifa, as Pat calls her.  They've been sleeping together (as well as Concha & Collins, the cat) from the very first day.
 
Thank you for knowing that we are the correct home.  We truly are.  And although little Conchita is still learning the rules, she is learning them fast.  We are  having great fun with her, and it just gets better every day!
