LOL... I took Nicki into work today to see if she'd be good to use as a demo dog. Apparently Dog trainers are encouraged to bring their own dogs to work every night to show people what a properly trianed and socialized dog is like.
Unfortunately Miss Nicki was freaked over the car ride and pulled me all over the store. When she finally stopped that, she laid on the floor and whined any time I stopped to talk to someone. :rolleyes: I figured that would be her reaction (she is TERRIFIED of the car and is always a holy terror when we get out) and I figured being as old as she is, that she'd become tired soon after we got there.
Oh well, I tried and everyone got to meet my pretty girl.
She also picked out some new bones and got a new duck

You have to know Nicki to know her behavior in store was completely out of character. Nicki never pulls me any other time. Never. Only when she's worked up over having been in the car. Poor pup :( She really fears the car, which is why I try not to take her anywhere.
