PLAYDATES
Stella is an adorable 4 month old Australian Labradoodle who was 1 of 11 in a litter. She's now with her new owner. We are caring for Stella for half day playdates Monday-Thursdays to provide her with socialization and recreation while her owner is at work. She and Bailey get along famously!
Once Stella warmed up to us after her Momma left, she settled down in Bailey's bed!
Stella is very precious; reminds one of a little lamb
(but watch those sharp puppy teeth!)
Outside in the Lanai
Checking out the dog door we practiced with yesterday. She's afraid of the flap so far.

Stella is VERY affectionate and is a lap dog
The stare: who is going to make the first move?
I decided to remove the flap of the dog door to enable Stella to feel comfortable using the opening.
In a few days I'll replace it and hopefully she'll be over her inhibition.

Dog door - view Stella's foot! Victory!
Tumble Time!
Bailey's easy: he just lays there and dares her to "come and get me"
My Boy leads by example: he comes in through the dog door
Active properly b/c it was TREAT TIME!
The little one is tired; but does she stop? Oh no.......
Stella is the initiator; Bailey is submissive
Finally, rest mode
Bosom Buddies first day!
Bailey tries to give Stella the hint that he's tired. She gets it and comes back inside with me :)
Bailey gives Stella the run down on the gecko tree.
