What are You doing right now? (Pt 2)

[Phoenix]

  Letting my leg recover from the work day so I can begin schlepping the laundry down two flights. 

Be adventuresome.  Toss it out the window.

  I'd still have to schlepp myself down two flights to get it into the laundry room.

We have an extra dog visiting. Puppy's following the guest around and I'm trying to stop some of the inevitable mishaps.

Both of my dogs love other dogs and play well with them in daycare and at the dog park, but it makes me kind of sad that I can't have other dogs over to my house unless they know them really well. One of my females is super dominant. She ruins all the fun.

  Seriously, why did I not love this song more when I was younger? 
  So much hope in just over 3 minutes.  Thank you, Glen Campbell, songwriter Larry Weiss,
  and everyone involved in this recording.  I really needed a pick-me-up today, and this was it.

I am eating chocolate and staring kind of blankly at a computer screen.

Let's just say that the guest and the puppy had some initial difficulties.

Not surprising. It's hard for dogs to have another dog in their personal space. My big dog is fine no matter who comes over because she's super submissive, the other not so much. Next time, for a smoother transition, you can meet the other dog outside and go for a walk together. It changes the energy between the two of them as they're focused on the walk but they're also picking up on the other dogs scent at the same time. Then coming home together and into the house can be easier because they're already used to each other and they're energy is better matched. Plus they're tired.

Yup, that's what we did first. It helps.

That doesn't even work with dog#2 in my house. She still wears her bossy pants.

All the puppy really wants is to play with the other dog but she is socially awkward and misses all the signals.

  Awww, your puppy is one of us!     We'll be her friends.

[Phoenix]

Yes, bring me all the dogs. I shall be so happy

They've had a good day so far. Much better than yesterday.
