I'll start taking her out more for sure. I just feel like these beginning experiences are not setting a good enjoyable tone and I worry! My mom said she'll start taking her with her when she goes out too. I just thought if we took her everywhere she'd never learn to deal with separation and then develop some kind of complex from that!  These guys are like little kids! You worry that if you raise them wrong you will ruin them for life  |
I believe they should learn to stay by themselves some without being upset. If I leave mine, she looks at me with a very sad look on her face and then proceeds to her bed.

She's never alone very long, either. I think it's good to take them to different activities: parks, parades, group outings, sports events, shopping... You're right. They are like little kids and we all worry whether or not we are doing the right thing at the time. No matter how many you raise, they are all different in their personalities and react to various situations differently. I know that's been true for me.
