It's been quite a busy couple of week, so we're taking a bit of a nap. Since the last posts, Zeldie has stayed with our friend Tiffani as Anne and I attended my grandfather's funeral in Texas, and then two days later we drove with her and Willie up to Albany for Justin's graduation. Zeldie did so well for the almost 10 hour car ride up and the 9.5 hour car ride back (except for the last hour on the ride up, for which she was quite cranky). Today, the whole family (Anne included) took a nap on the floor for a well deserved rest. She's doing very well in puppy kindergarten, and she is now one of the bigger dogs in the class. She plays very nicely with most of the dogs, and is certainly the most distinctive dog in the class. We haven't seen another terrier yet. I guess the reputation as "terrors" keeps people away from getting them. We love training Zeldie, but that's probably the teacher in both of us that loves the challenge.
She's quite a spectacle wherever we go. I was walking her a couple of days ago, and someone drove by, stopped, and walked back to us to ask about her breed, etc. Everyone that comes near her wants to pet her, and of course she loves that. For the first time today, we actually ran into someone who knew what breed she is before we said anything.
Our second vet visit is tomorrow, for more puppy shots and another checkup. Hopefully the vet will be a bit more positive than the first visit.
