Big Progress Friday!! Look who's waiting on the car for me, BY HERSELF, calm as a PERFECT ANGEL?
She's done this before with Bruno a few times. I always park in the same, less trafficked, spot, next to a window so there's stuff to look at. This one is routine now. The first time I left her, a year ago, even with her sister, she was nervous and sweaty 15 minutes later after sitting in a protected spot -- but it had more people walking by and no window. So I started parking 1 floor up, on a side where there's only one or two other cars. Seems to be the passers by that stressed her most. 💖💖💖
(Windows and non roof are generously cracked open and it was ~ 50° out, season for car time is almost over)

Ahhhh take a deep breath, Flora!  It's a cloudy Springtime day on the coast! 💖💖😂🦞🐟

Flora and her new BFF, an Easter sale brown Bun-Bun ❤️❤️❤️
You know, it took a few months for her to let me put a blankie on top of her. That used to be scary but now she loves it. Patience and respect always pay off! ❤️❤️❤️

More good work from MDM!

Thank you Petra!!
Take a look at this beautiful girl. ❤️ Still the sweetest after who knows what led her to be stuck in the pound in Spain for two years without a second glance, and now in foster almost a full year. Shy girl just needs love, patience, and dog buddies to be happy.
Just like the rest of us, right? 💖

You never know how a dog will react to fire... It's her first with us and I'd say she likes it!
(Just the thing when it's suddenly gray and damp and cold!)

Bobbie reminds Flora that Bruno may have been adopted but don't worry there's still a Baby to take care of 😂💖
(Yes Flora was then relieved of this particular duty.)
(Although I don't know what percentage she was annoyed by Bobbie wanting attention vs. by me recording)

Another project Flora was busy with early this spring -- winning obedience class! She even did her walks and sits demo in the center of the room like everyone else! What shy dog? ❤️❤️❤️
(She is still shy with new situations, but acclimates beautifully given time)

Flora has been very busy with a lot of projects and hasn't had time for much PR. Primarily in the past 10 weeks she was teaching young sir here How To Dog. It was a big job and we couldn't have done it without her!
She saw him adopted off into his wonderful new family last weekend and gave him a kiss goodbye. Despite being highly intuitive, kind, helpful, quiet, and steady despite her fears, she is still waiting for her perfect forever family to emerge.

We’ve recently signed up for SniffSpot (a service where you can rent someone’s yard for an hour, like Airbnb for dogs!) and Flora loves exploring new yards and even feeling confident to run and play.

Flora knocked her Obedience graduation review out of the park! Including walking and sitting in front of the whole class, not just her little area. ❤️ I got a second round of puppy pushups as a sample. Look at her calm, cool, and collected 💖💖💖💖 Good work Flora and Rena!

Ok by the second exercise I had covered my lens with cheddar. But it's STILL a great watch seeing Flora doing great on recall despite nerves and distractions!

Today was session 4 of Flora's Beginner Obedience class. Our goal with Flora was for her to be able to tolerate being in training with other people and dogs and to tolerate being away from C-A, her #1 mama. She's a bit distracted but she has grown so much -- in this very noisy room with clickers, exclamations, many dogs, etc. She is also learning a lot! "Leave it" was easy and I only did it three times as she gets demoralized. She loves "walk and look" which is heeling while looking into my eyes and getting treats (so do I!) She's already got "sit" down pat and it's her go-to move now. Here she is learning to wait for "OK" to eat. She's hard to train because of her fear, so we don't press, and mostly use shaping. She's already picked up more than we expected! So proud and happy. Doesn't she look amazing! It's not happening overnight, but it's happening.

I moved Flora's couch to face the window. I thought you would like it even better but she slept all night on the FLOOR in the spot where the couch SHOULD be 😂🥰🥰 So Mori Early Bird got it

Flora is taking beginner obedience classes to become more comfortable in multiple environments and with multiple handlers, and of course strengthen her basic commands. She’s very interested in what the trainer has to demonstrate, even though initially it was very scary.

Happy Valentine’s Day! Bruno and Flora are looking for their forever families- or family!
