So glad you're home, and best wishes for a full and speedy recovery - and I'm thinking Turtle just figured anything you spent so much time teaching her was dear to your heart, so she was going to play fetch as long as her paws held out!
Well, there's a whole lot of fetch to catch up on, you know!Originally Posted by Bellaandme
Turtle was in the window when we pulled up to the house. She was pushing her head against the screen I thought she was going to pop it out AGAIN!! I got out of the car, looked up and started talking to her, but she disappeared.
So I step inside the apartment and gently call her name. No Turtle. I did it again. No Turtle.
OMG!! She doesn't remember me??
Then I see a sweet face peeking around the corner at me. Ah, there she was--WITH HER TOY IN HER MOUTH!!!! And she came right to me, drop the toy at me feet and looked up at me.
I think I created a monster when I taught her how to fetch.
So that's what we've been doing now for an hour. No hot bath, no snuggles, no nap, no breakfast. Just fetch, fetch, fetch....
