SweetViolet | 03-27-2009 10:51 PM | So far the only thing Puddin' is afraid of is the Fox Terrier, Trinny. Which is kinda sad since Trinny is the one who likes her the best (Nash is coming around, but the jury is still out for Candy).
Trinny, who is 16, is a long-legged Foxy and she seems to have too many legs...she is always scrambling to find her feet, falls over when running around corners, and is just generally a little clumsy. She also has a goofy personality...really a fun, engaging dog. When she is happy about something, she jumps up and down like a jack-in-the-box...which is really cute, but she doesn't look where she lands.
And there is the problem. She really likes Puddin' so she jumps up and down to show her approval...without looking where she lands...with Puddin' on the floor next to her. She's never hurt Puddin', but with that "big" dog jumping up and down right over her head, Puddin' gets freaked. But she seems to love Trinny if I pick her up and let them commune from my lap!
Other than than, nothing except the vet tech and the vet's office scares her. The vet tech is the one who gives the shots and when I took her in to be weighed on Thursday, when the vet tech picked her up to put her on the scale, Puddin' squeaked, began to shake, and wet herself. Fortunately she was wearing her nappies, but still...I've never seen her so scared she piddled!
But otherwise she is fearless...so far. |
