I just talked to my friend's ex who informed me that if I carry a treat with me to the door then throw it across the room right as I'm about to walk out it will distract her and keep her from barking and attacking the door when you leave. So hopefully that works!

Karen I love the kong suggestion. I might have to go out and get her one tomorrow since I don't think she has one. I'm sure that would give me and my neighbors some peace!

I also want to try to handle the situation tactfully since I know my friend already feels horrible about having to live in my living room for two weeks.

I do realize that Stella might be a little stressed with everything going on. But I'm stressed too! Hopefully these two weeks will go by fast.
