Yesterday we had our 4th annual AIDS Walk. I had debated about bringing Chloe along since I've only had her for a month (as of today) and she can still be a bit skittish about strangers. Anyway, since I'm one of the organizers and would be gone much longer than I am on a work day, I decided to bring her along.

She handled it like a champ. :D I made her a sign to wear "Paws for a Cause" which drew a lot of attention. She encountered strangers (children and adults) much better than I had anticipated. She even surprised me when getting into the car (which she previously had loathed) by just hopping in. She spent a lot of time sleeping once we got back home.

Some members of my team said they got some good pictures of her. As soon as they e-mail 'em to me I'll post 'em.

Trek, thanks again for the temp tatoos...they were a hit. I'll have to see if there are pic of the people who sported 'em.

That sounds wonderful! She must be feeling comfortable with you now. Can't wait to see pictures!

Still waiting on the pictures.

Yeah, I think she's feeling right at home now. For a dog who was uncomfortable even walking into my room she now dive-bombs me when she hears the alarm going off in the morning...pushing the pillows off and trying to push me out. No more snooze alarm abuse for me anymore. :rolleyes:
