How to be a dog

Today has been a great day for Chico!

When Chico first came to the daycare a week or two or go, he had forgotten how to be a dog. He used to play with dogs but in the last 6 months or so, he stopped showing any interet in other dogs. On his first visit to the daycare, he spent all his time standing alone and avoiding all the other dogs as much as possible.

On the second day, he started to follow them around but didn't even come close to playing with anyone.

On his third day, he played chase but you could tell he couldn't tell if it was fun or scary.

On his fourth visit he played with Jasper...briefly.

But today...Today he has played for extended periods with 3 other dogs!!! It was so great to see. He played with Zoey (he really likes Zoey), D.O.G. and Keira. I'm so glad he has remembered how to be a dog.
