[QUOTE=RachelandSadie; doesn't it just break your heart. it hurts that Bentley after more than a year still won't totally trust that I'm never going to hurt him. poor baby.[/QUOTE]
Oh, boy doesn't it break your heart! You said it GF! She is unlike any fur baby I've ever had. She is naturally soooo smart. When I ask her if she wants to go out, she will jump up and down and go wait in front of the door. When I finally make it there, most times she is sitting right in front of my shoes. One day out of the blue, I said to her, Let me get my shoes on, and she circled around my feet and went and sat down right behind me, effectively letting me gain access to my slip on shoes! I was floored and from then on out, I always ask her to let me get my shoes! hehehe. She knows what I say when I ask her if she wants to ride to Grandma's house and makes a beeline right for the car when I mention granny or mail,lol We may never feel the joy of their complete trust, but we can feel good in the knowledge that we helped them. That we helped make this world just a little bit better of a place for the innocent. She still follows me from room to room and at least once every hour she HAS to touch her nose to the back of my leg, but the urination is gone now, she can make it for a few hours alone without destructive chewing, soiling, etc, but I still look at her sleeping sometimes and wonder how anyone could have been so cruel to her as smart and loving as she is! She has made my life so much better too and I love her so much that I have requested that when I pass away, if she has passed before me, that she be put with me so that she is never alone and we are never parted. She is my heart and I can't stand the thought of being without her. I know it must be the same for you!
