Magnolia, although she looks like an adult, and has the perks of a grown dog like bladder control (woohoo!) she is still a pup. She has a lot of energy and needs physical and mental stimulation. We have been using treat dispensing toys, and treats frozen in water (for outside play). She really seems to enjoy interacting with treats in these ways and we've noticed that they help to keep her mentally engaged. For an extra challenge with the frozen treats outside, I toss them throughout the lawn so the girls have to "hunt" for their treats.
After a fun weekend up north, Jackie and Magnolia both needed a bath. Maggie enjoyed watching Jackie's bath, and when it was her turn, zero issues. She enjoyed drinking water from the spray hose.
Today we received an unexpected call from DDR. After about a month and a half, Magnolia's adoption fell through and were asked if we would foster her again. We enjoyed our time with her earlier this year and gladly welcomed her back.
