Gabbs Dogs Update #5
From Steve Markwell, Executive Director:
Our website has been down for a few days while our hosting company moved everything to a new data center; supposedly we were given several notices that this would be taking place, but if we did get them I don't remember any of them. So that's why this update is late.
Abel has moved in with Dixie; I felt that he would make better progress if he was sharing a room with a calmer dog. The first couple of days Dixie was a bit more nervous and flighty, but she calmed back down and is rubbing off on Abel. I'm petting both of them frequently, Dixie is taking treats from my hand, and Abel is showing interest in the treats, but waits until I leave to eat them.
Tippy, whose behavior and physical movements seemed strange to me initially, is behaving more normally now. Unfortunately, she has taken a cue from Herbie and barks at me when I enter the room. Due to a fairly intense week of construction at the Sanctuary, I have not yet moved Herbie to a more isolated room, which I believe will be helpful for everyone. That will be done this week, and we should start seeing positive results soon. Itsy and Tippy seem especially influenced by Herbie's fear of people and will benefit from his removal from their immediate proximity, and Herbie will feel safer in isolation, with no pack to 'protect'.
This will be the last of the weekly updates; I'll be spacing them out a few weeks apart from now on.
-Steve
