Thank you all for your responses. I know that time and patience are key, as well as the walks. We leash them all up and off down the road we go! Our neighbors all think we are crazy anyway - we live in an area where pets aren't valued the same as Jess and I do. We experience a lot of "disposable" attitudes. They aren't bad people, but dogs, especially large ones, are often "outside" dogs and we are the only ones who actually walk our dogs. Most people open the door and let them run willy nilly. Makes me nuts.

I am happy to report that Jess says that Sookie has willingly come out of the crate and sat patiently by the door for her leash and has come for affection! (I travel for work 3 days per week). I can't wait to get home tomorrow to see where we are...
