It is finally the weekend, and I really need it, Nili the energizer bunny does not slow down from morning to night. I love her to death, and she is so busy, it is cute but exhausting LOL.<\/p>\n<p>Last weekend Gidget came to spend two days with us, one night. I have been dog sitting Gidget for over four years, I know her quirks, her naughtiness and I adore her but last weekend was a nightmare. Gidget did not like Nili and they fought nonstop. I did not sleep as I was worried they would fight during the night. Gidget guarded my bed and would not let Nili on it, and if she did get on the bed there was a lot of growling so I would lie between the two of them to keep peace, Nili was just as much to blame in someways as she would bounce around on the floor, barking at Gidget wanting to play and it was not happening. To cut a long story short, my arms are blue with bruises, wounds here and there, and I concluded that there will never be a friendship between these two. Nili is ok with Nigel spending time in my house, so it was not the first time I had a doggy visitor in the house. It was a lesson for me also and something that I must work on with Nili.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_3075\" style=\"width: 910px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3075\" class=\"wp-image-3075 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/laylaswoof.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/IMG_5179-900x500.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"900\" height=\"500\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-3075\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The first hour when they lay on the bed together before all hell broke out<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Nili met with a trainer on Monday, I learnt to use the command circle when she sees another dog with a treat in my hand and it is slowly working phew, the other command was touch which makes her smell my hand where there is a treat to get her to focus on my hand and not let her get distracted which is slowly working and she now does not try jump and run after people, skateboards, or cyclists. \u00a0\u00a0It is a work in progress and hopefully soon walking will be fun. She must learn to stop playing tug of war with her leash when I put her harness on which I am working on also. Nili is a clever girl, the trainer said it to me, but she knows how to manipulate me also LOL and I have to not let that happen. It is like any relationship we work together to get that happy balance and that is what I am working on.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_3078\" style=\"width: 910px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3078\" class=\"wp-image-3078 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/laylaswoof.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/IMG_5189-900x500.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"900\" height=\"500\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-3078\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Focusing on my trainer for a treat, Nili<\/p><\/div>\n<p>After the meeting we went to my friend\u2019s garden to hang out and relax in the sun, it actually was so hot we moved into the shade, but it was great to just sit back, relax and enjoy the outdoors. The plus with the garden is Nili can run freely about sniffing and exploring with no worries as she cannot get out. She was one happy tired girl when we got home but it was just what the doctor needed, she napped all afternoon LOL.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_3076\" style=\"width: 2436px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3076\" class=\"wp-image-3076 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/laylaswoof.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/IMG_5191-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2426\" height=\"2560\" srcset=\"https:\/\/laylaswoof.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/IMG_5191-scaled.jpg 2426w, https:\/\/laylaswoof.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/IMG_5191-768x810.jpg 768w, https:\/\/laylaswoof.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/IMG_5191-1456x1536.jpg 1456w, https:\/\/laylaswoof.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/IMG_5191-1941x2048.jpg 1941w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2426px) 100vw, 2426px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-3076\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Relaxing in the shade in the garden<\/p><\/div>\n<p>She met on the way home a cute little dog that looks like her and they tried playing but both were on leash but it was cute and relaxed me in the way that she does want to play but little fluffy dogs are the answer so I cannot wait for her to be ready for a Shi Tzu meet up where she will have fun. I am wondering if she is afraid of big dogs as being a stray something could have happened in her past.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_3077\" style=\"width: 1985px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3077\" class=\"wp-image-3077 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/laylaswoof.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/IMG_5190-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1975\" height=\"2560\" srcset=\"https:\/\/laylaswoof.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/IMG_5190-scaled.jpg 1975w, https:\/\/laylaswoof.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/IMG_5190-768x996.jpg 768w, https:\/\/laylaswoof.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/IMG_5190-1185x1536.jpg 1185w, https:\/\/laylaswoof.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/IMG_5190-1580x2048.jpg 1580w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1975px) 100vw, 1975px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-3077\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Nili meeting Levi<\/p><\/div>\n<p>I also got dental chews this week for her as I am trying to keep her teeth pearly white the way they are now so before bed at night she gets one and that is her last treat for the night, she loves them which is great as I know she is going to sleep with clean teeth.<\/p>\n<p>So life has been busy, am out and about when I have to go, I am leaving her at home till she is fully trained, she loves her squeaky toys and keeps herself busy when I am not at home and how I know is all the toys on the floor LOL, I also got her a Kong which I stuff with carrots and she cannot get enough of that so am happy that she is happy plus of course the window watch which she loves.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"I love my Gefilte Fish Toy, Nili\" width=\"678\" height=\"509\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/xcZwpu_cq38?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>And we must not forget, August is Empty the Shelters month and we need to keep speaking out for the shelter dogs and help them get homes, especially as the shelters are overflowing and so many are needing homes.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Before Nili goes to bed, we want to say a special thank you shout out to Anne from us for introducing Nili to everyone, we are truly honored, you can read about it on her blog on this link : <a href=\"https:\/\/zoolatry.blogspot.com\/2024\/08\/nili-our-friend.html\">https:\/\/zoolatry.blogspot.com\/2024\/08\/nili-our-friend.html<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Have a wonderful weekend everyone, thank you for dropping by to say hi, hug your fur kids tight<\/p>\n<p>With woof and love<\/p>\n<p>Nili<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>TGIF!!
