Charlotte 2.20.2025
The last few days have been full of snow. Over twelve inches in 18 hours. A
rare event here and Charlotte is not too happy. Our girl does not like the cold
icy stuff. It prevents her from running like crazy in the yard. Her foster
brothers do not care for it either. Charlotte goes out and runs around the
cleared area on the deck trying to find a way into the yard. Then she
grumbles and barks at the snow as if it will clear the way for her before
wanting back in the house.
She is warming up to people a little more every day and usually remembers
the ones she had met before. When we go for walks, she ignores most
people and other pets we see along the way.
Charlotte still prefers to have her way when we are walking and wants to
explore everything which can be a challenge as she does not pay attention
to commands. Still a work-in- progress.
Charlotte loves her toys and will scatter them everywhere. She loves to
chase them, toss them and shake them. She tosses my throw pillows around
and when she tires of it, falls asleep beneath them.
Charlotte continues to be my shadow, follows me everywhere and greets me
excitedly at the door when I come home, (or even when I come in from just
checking the mail).
She is not scared as easily as she was when she first came to us. Charlotte is
okay with the vacuum cleaner and other loud noises now but will watch from
a distance. She has become less frightened of storms as well. Charlotte
continues to be protective of her home and will bark at every noise she hears
outside. She really takes guarding to heart.
We had our first spa day at the groomers and were glad to hear she did well
other than being a little impatient at times.
Charlotte eats well and I have not found anything she dislikes. She knows
when it is bedtime, and she sleeps in her crate through the night.
Charlotte has her own quirky personality, but we have grown to love who she
is.
Charlotte is staying in Chesapeake, VA for more information please go to www.saveayorkierescue.org
