How life is with Emma

Emma has been with us for over 2weeks, and for the most part it is going well. We have had some accidents but fewer then previous visits. She is asking to go out (by whining) far more often so we know and can get her out in time. Unlike my brother in law, I don't live a life where I can just follow her around and wait for the moment her body language indicates she may have to pee!

She has been causing a little trouble. She has figured out she can sneak into the cat area and eat their food. This has upset her belly a little, messed up her feeding time, and upset my old cats. 

She has also destroyed all stuffed toys. There is no stuffing left in anything. 

Overall, though, we are having a good visit and neither Lee or Phod seem bothered by having her here. She seems happy. Which is good, because she is here for another 2 weeks! 

Emma's colouring has changed as she has gotten older. She is a neat brindle now.

    Emma has not visited in quite awhile! So good you get to catch up with her. We hope she does not discover the kitty litter!

    Your Pals,

    We noticed those brindle furs before we read the caption. Very pretty.

    Glad Emma's a little better at asking to go out, and everyone is getting along. We don't count the cats. And we think if cat food is left down, it's in the free zone and any dog can eat it!

    XXXOOO Daisy, Bella & Roxy

    Well she is gorgeous!
    Dogs can be so sneaky though! Sounds like Emma could be part husky, with that sly side to her!!!
    Maybe see about finding a different place for the kitty food for the next two weeks. If you have another spot?
    Otherwise, yup, I dont know what to tell ya! lol sorry I cant be more help!

    Dear Emma,

    Ojo likes to eat the Cat food too. And the Cat poop. And the Cat vomit. (I just like the vomit part. The rest is disgusting, truly.)

    You are lucky that you have such a good auntie-person and dog-cousins to take care of you! Enjoy the rest of your stay!

    Licks,
    Cobi
