Sadie is a pretty easy guest (in spite of the fact that she sheds like crazy!)….we know she misses her family because she spends a lot of time lying on the rug right by the door to our third floor lobby. But eventually she settles in and does just fine. She occasionally grabs one of Fen's toys and they go racing around the living room couch. But mostly, at age seven, she naps. She does like our little deck overlooking the park.
We have to sort of "child proof" the condo because we are used to dogs with small tails…..and Sadie's "whip" can clear the coffee table with one swipe. We plan a walking schedule and take turns getting our little guy and his bigger cousin into the elevator, down to the lobby and out the door. Then Dave and I head in opposite directions….the two seem to do much better walking if they aren't "competing" with each other. "I need to be first!"….."No!! I do!"
Anyway - it's fun to have Sadie come for a visit and we are happy to have her. Too bad she just doesn't feel "at home here".
And Fenway is exhausted after playing the "host" all day!
