• Please continue to send good vibes. . . willowchow Posted : 12/17/2006 8:04:20 PM We had company tonight and Willow was AFFECTIONATE toward them!  I put her in the bedroom at first and then let her out.  I was intending just to let her say "hi" and see what was going on.   But, she started pawing at Paul (our cousin) and play bowing to him.  She was licking his wife!  I told her to lay down after awhile and she did.  She just watched what was going on but didn't bother anyone.  And we were setting up a new computer so there was lots of movement.  But, she did great!    She ended up staying out the whole time.  And, at one point we all moved into the kitchen and she just layed down and didn't bother with anyone unless they approached her.    I'm so happy.  And, I know this is only a little thing but I know that all the support and prayers she gets here are making a difference in her health and attitude.    THANK YOU!!!

• tacran Posted : 12/18/2006 10:00:29 PM Lori, I totally missed this thread (I emailed you just a little while ago). What an awesome feeling you must've had to see Willow doing so well with company.  That's a huge step, and I imagine you felt your heart swelling with pride for her, as well as satisfaction that your devoted care to her has paid off.    Willow, you are such a good girl!! [sm=clapping%20hands%20smiley.gif] It's wonderful that you can relax and enjoy the company of others who love you and want you to be a part of the activity they're sharing together.  I'd give you a special kiss if I were there! 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• nfowler Posted : 12/19/2006 7:41:16 AM Thanks, Lori, for posting the positive experiences, too. I'm pretty happy with my own WeirdoBoy lately since he's been really reaching out to people when they're here and even has had relaxed body language around one of my nieces (who isn't allowed to go near him, of course).   Even though the steps seem small, they sure do make us feel a WHOLE lot better and they bring on the smiles.   Good job Willow and Lori! 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• willowchow Posted : 1/4/2007 9:35:15 PM More good news!!! I went to pick Willow up from grooming yesterday.  I was a little nervous because the usual crew that she knows wasn't there.  But, I guess she adjusted because her new "friend" Sean came walking out to me with her IN HIS ARMS!  [sm=eek.gif] We talked about her for a few minutes and he was telling me how he's very leary of chows.  And, he wasn't crazy about them. . .until her!  He said she's--his words---AWESOME!!!    If I could reach the stars I'd pull one down for you Shine it on my heart so you could see the truth That this love I have inside is everything it seems But for now I find it's only in my dreams That I can change the world I would be the sunlight in your universe You will think my love was really something good Baby if I could change the world. . .   0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• tacran Posted : 1/4/2007 11:26:47 PM [sm=clapping%20hands%20smiley.gif]I'm sure there's a cool emoticon out there that shows a heart bursting with pride, but I only know how to get to the standard ones on the reply screen, so a round of applause will have to do!   It would've been fun to see the look on your face when Sean came out carrying Willow.  I'm imagining your mouth agape, perhaps rubbing your eyes to make sure you were seeing clearly, shaking your head, etc.  Willow's heart is expanding to allow more people in besides just those in her safety zone, and she has you to thank for teaching her how to stretch it to make that extra room! 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.
