Bon gets read by Nancy (Update #25)

[Alysser]

I am seriously stunned after reading that. I had read about Angus in past threads, and that is amazing to me how she knew about him. I can't believe it. I really hope this has helped you with Poor Bon. I hope this can help him feel more comfortable with his family.

Amazing reading there. Anna, I could really relate when you said about
Bon, "I HATE that he will never be that bold and confident dog." I feel the
same way about Smokey. I hate it for Smokey's sake, but also because
it was what I was used to with Buddy. Having Nancy read Smokey did give
me a lot to think about & a way to remember the differences that can a
big part of who each animal is. (Know what I mean?)

Interesting reading, Anna. Poor Bon, I felt so bad for him when she said he's a small dog in a big body. Just his size alone makes him a formidable force to others, especially when he does go after other dogs. I would never had imagined that it was out of being afraid of them! Now that you know more about his issues, you can work on specific things. Hopefully he'll feel more understood and his confidence level will go up.
As for Ms. Roxey and Mark...it doesn't take a psychic to see that she's Daddy's girl! ( joke) She's a very smart & perceptive girl, maybe if you talk to her about it, she'll mellow out a bit towards him. (((hugs))) to all your fluffies.

That is so awesome that Angus checked in with her too! Gives me goosebumps!

I can also really relate to that statement, Daisy has ZERO confidence. Like not an ounce of it.. It really concerns me.. I never imagined Bon would be a fearful dog, hes so large and proud looking in all his pics, I wonder why?.. Maybe his parents or one of them was the same way? It may have been passed down to Bon through his Genetics?
