Shae is becoming a walking master!

So Shae is getting super at our walks - excited to go outside; confident.  So we went for around the block... He did really great until two barky dogs behind a fence freaked him out a bit... as he was dealing with that - two small dogs on a walk with their person came walking by across the street... It was too much.  His little back knees were shaking (so bad the women walking her dogs noticed)...but he didn't try to flee; didn't flatten.  Just held still and I just was talking to him; telling him what a good job he was doing... After a minute; he was ready to continue on and we finished around the block... He's really come far in the month he has been here...   Yesterday; we just did our 1 block walking and he was just perky and confident the whole way. 

He also loves to sleep on top of the couch...and he's so leggy!  Super cute.

 He's also doing well with the open crate - cause the dog beds in there.. He goes in there and chills out while I'm in the kitchen.  

 At lunch and after work, it's playtime out in the yard.  He has some energy to burn and my older girls are not into the running and chasing he likes.  So he has to play by himself (I have caught him just doing rattie runs in the morning) and entertain himself until my work is done.   He really would do well with a playmate.

Being a dork

He's very handsome and sweet.   Still has puppy in him; but he's learning.  Happy to seem him continuing to get more comfortable.  He still has a ways to go; but progress!
