Thank you for the replies- I am glad to hear this sounds somewhat normal. Bill would get down at her level ,absolutely. We will try that. She has really only seen him 2x this week-the night she came home and then for a few hours on Thursday. Like I said that bark and attitude coming from this tiny body was pretty cute but I think it actually kinda hurt Bill's feelings!
He kept saying Come here baby it's OK....Poor guy! Lol
