Snickers - Day 4

Snickers is very curious. She wanders around the house looking and sniffing at everything. I caught her tugging on a rug here, a quilt there, a dresser scarf and later in the day she pulled her quilt out of her box. I caught her doing these things and corrected her each time. She gave us the impression that she wanted to gnaw on something so we gave her a raw hide bone; this satisfied her. She has a gentle mouth and is not aggressive at all. She is not even an aggressive eater. It takes her sometime to decide if she really wants to eat. She will take a bit here and there then finally will eat most of what is in her bowl.
Loves her crate! We are allowing her to stay out of her crate for most of the day today to see how she does. We leave the door open and when she is tired she goes in there for a nap. We do not even close the door! I would highly recommend that she continues to be crated as she is comfortable and secure here. We went for another walk this afternoon and she has started to relieve herself in the street rather than the grass. I do not know why; but at least she doesn’t do this in the house. All is going well and it seems that Tari is ok with this too. They have not had any scrapes since the other day. Snickers got the hint that Tari is not the playful type. It has been so much fun watching her personality come out. She is doing many of the things our first greyhound, Isis, did at this age.
