I just got home and wanted to come here with an exciting update!
On Friday night we arrived at the cabin and took Layla in and put her in her crate, brought everything else in, and it was kind of hectic. My mom, of course, was all over Layla and petting her and talking to her, and when I finally got a chance I came towards her and put my hand out to pet her and her tail started going! I was like "She's wagging her tail! She's wagging! She hasn't wagged in days!" and I called to Scott but I couldn't even think of grabbing a camera. All four of us saw it! It lasted for a long time. I was ecstatic telling my parents what it could mean, and saying that I wasn't sure earlier that we would ever see it again!
We were ready and armed with a camera for the rest of the night and all of Saturday, but to no avail. There wasn't any more wagging.
This morning, Scott got out of bed around 6 or 6:30 to express her bladder. He put her back in her crate beside our bed. I kept waking up periodically and looking at her, and she was awake and would look at me too. Finally I decided to get up, and it was almost like she was waiting... she started shifting weight on her front legs like she always has done when she's excited about something, and she looked so eager in her eyes, and when I bent down to give her a good morning pet, her tail wagged! I was like "You're wagging your tail! Oh my gosh!" and I was fumbling around trying to grab my cell phone and get the camcorder setting on (which takes awhile when I just wake up and don't have my contacts in!) but by the time I got it figured out, she had stopped wagging. I set the phone on top of the crate and pointed it down while recording but I didn't get another wag. But I am so glad we saw two wags this weekend anyway!
On Saturday, Scott, my dad, and I went golfing at this little course near our cabin. We noticed a group of people with a dog on a leash and thought, hey, Layla's in a stroller, why can't we bring her? So today, my parents, Scott, Layla, and I all had a golf outing
Layla's stroller also has perfect storage for snacks lol! So she was our "snacks and drinks" girl. She seemed to really enjoy her time out with us!
