Molly

Hey Amoret and Animal Advocates!! I wanted to send a special birthday update on Maddie! (Formerly known as Molly). As she passes her first birthday, I am pleased to let you know that the biting has stopped, barking has gone down to only when people walk by our living room window, and commands are getting easier and easier! She is still very jumpy, especially when new people come around, but we have started working very hard on greeting people with patience :) Maddie LOVES water!! (Though not taking baths) she loves going to an off-leash beach at St. Petersburg and running around with new friends! Lake Baldwin park is her favorite place! She loves to run around with friends, play in the water, then go for a walk in the woods where she can chase as many squirrels as she wants! (She's quite the hunter!) She has a lot of toys, and loves to play with them all, but has a special love for her white teddy bear that says "My first Christmas". She carries it around with her, never pulls any strings off of it, and won't go to bed without it! She treats it like it's her baby 💜 Most of all, she adores her mommy! ..sometimes even to the point of growling at dogs who try to say hi.. we are working on that as well. Haha She loves her daddy, but isn't quite as obedient to him yet. Mommy being home all day has the advantage! Here are some pictures of her over the last 4 months leading up to her birthday at the lake!
