I know :( plus Shannen has a huge adavantage to help him over his issues that we could never have had. and thats neutral property. Blair is nervous is general, but its hugely amplified on "his" property, and because "our" house would always be his property to him, we could not help him very easily. with Shannen he will have a fresh start, she knows what is issues are and she can start working with him right away, one what to him will be neutral property.
He's gone now, just got back from taking him to the airport, he wasnt such a fan of the guy working in the office though lol, the guy forgot her had to check inside the crate before we oput the dog in, so then he just up and decided, without introdicing himself, to stick his hand in the crate with Blair in it! ya smart. we didnt stick a sign on the crate that says "careful: I may bite" for no reason, we stuck it there because he is a nervous dog, and his crate is his "safe spot" so random strangers shoving their hands in his safe spot aint a good plan!

well, he arrived in one peice, although Shannen said he looks traumatized and last I heard he would not come out of his crate :(
-
Aww, poor Blair. :( It will take him some time, but he will get comfortable in his new home.
I know it was a tough decision, but I am sure it was the right one.

I saw Blair about a half hour ago after our agility group meeting. He still wasn't so sure about things and still didn't want to come out of his crate...then again don't blame him, he was in a strange place with about 5 or 6 people looking in at him. Shan said she's not worried though and that he'll come out when he's ready. I'll most likely see him tomorrow night as well when I go in to assist if not then then some other time this week.

Im glad hear has calmed down a little bit, poor fella stresses pretty easy, and suddenly he is in a strange place with strange people and neither my mom or I in sight. its going to take him a bit to adjust. if he hasnet come out yet, I hope he calms down and feels safe enugh to come out soon :)

Im sure he will be fine, It must be really good for you to know other PTers who can give you updates, The new lady sounds fantastic Im sure he will come out of his shell soon.
