I figured I give an update! Natasha has been here an entire 3 days (plus one hour, lol).
Natasha is learning the sounds of our house, and our routine. She is such a sweetie, but SO skittish. Still leery of me, but Dad is super in her book! :nodding: This is how they spend 2 hours every evening, watching TV:

When he gets up for anything, he will place her in my lap, so I get a chance to hold her. I've brushed her a bit, to get her used to that feeling. Not a true brush up, just going through the motions. As soon as he returns to his chair, she is out of my lap and back in his.
Tasha is never far from Dad's side. She often does the "frog dog" pose, lol.

Here, she was conversing with Bobby, both verbally and with posturing, trying to get him to play with her. He wasn't having any of it!

Marlin and Sugar have both come around, so things are more settled here. Now the rain has stopped, I took all 4 out in the back yard and threw the ball for Lacey. Tasha just loves to race up and down the length of the yard, crashing into Lacey doesn't stop her, lol. I also put the harness on and took all 4 for a VERY short walk around the block today. Tasha kept looking over her should for the houseDad, I am sure. Anyway, we turned the corners and she kept looking BACK, so she was startled and surprised when we returned home.
This is my 3 girls, Lacey in back, Tasha to the left, and Sugar on the right.

And a close up of Tasha, which would NOT load into photobucket the right way around for some strange reason.
