Haven't been doing much with Emma or dogs this week after burning myself out a bit rescuing neglected small creatures at the beginning of the week.
But I have been noticing lately that she's been getting very confident at navigating and perching on the back of the couch! Excellent chihuahua behavior unlocked. She's also just getting more confident with moving around and on top of the humans on the couch. We've got to watch her bc sometimes this newfound boldness means she tries to nab your food if you're not paying attention. 😂
And on the food note, she's been doing very good at not showing guarding behaviors with our food over the past few weeks! We haven't done anything very specific with that, mostly just not sharing food while eating, enforcing being in her corner bed or on a different couch area while we have food, and not leaving food sitting around. I think her continuing to settle and grow confidence a little is helping as well.
