After I came back from taking a shower, Jacques was acting strange...
I have an old apple crate laying on its side by my bed; it serves as my nightstand. I keep reading material in the cubby..Jacques was pacing then walked over to the crate and climbed into the cubby. He layed there a while and put his head down. When I sat on the bed, he came out and sat with me but still seemed out of sorts. I offered to let him go under the covers so he cpuld "den" some more and he went eagerly and remains there 10 min later.
I don't know what couldve scared him in the short time I was in the shower. He DID used to like to den under the couch at my moms...maybe he would like a small crate to accomadate this need...
Other than that, we went to an abandoned people park today and swung on the swing(he really seems to love this...oddly enough) and he got to play in the small brook there. He was also introduced to a nice Australian shepherd and we were invited by her trainer to come to his business for a people/dog social that they have every so often..
In other pet news, my morning client was going to toss about 3lbs of liver that she didn't like and I grabbed it. I found recipers at
www.dogtreatkitchen.com for liver treats and will probably dehydrate at least 1/3 of it for him.
