Phoneography Challenge: Challenger’s Choice (Portrait)
Apps: Camera+, Snapseed
Switched the viewfinder to the screen side of the camera so that it is easier to take a picture since I am strapped down in the car. Oh look, I got caught in the frame as well, sans head. So there you have it, me and my dog. :P
Mr P was driving so he couldn’t be in the picture :P
For the last couple of months, I have started to worry that perhaps Donna is missing out on building social skills now that she has started life afresh from the shelter. I guess you could even say she perhaps never had social skills to start with. This, after all, was the dog that was isolated with an old man dog (who is too chill to care about crazy pups) because she couldn’t get along with the other dogs in the other bigger fenced yards.
We took her to the dog park, but she couldn’t deal with the dogs that home in on her and got fearful. I introduced her to our cousin’s dog Doudou, but they seemed to prefer the grass around them compared to each other. Oh she wanted to meet the other dogs we pass by on our walks alright, but a lot of times her tail would be wagging stiffly, which apparently can mean that she is undecided if she wants to be friendly or no.
But over the weekend, we drove to a doggy cafe and then to the dog park and she did great with both. She was gentle with the small dogs in the doggy cafe and a little submissive but friendly with the big dogs at the dog park! The people we met remarked at how calm and gentle she was! Good progress given that we have only had her for half a year so far! :D I’m pretty stoked!
