Here is Ethan's "I-can't-believe-you-came-back-to-save-me!" look.
Ethan... did not do too well at the kennel where we boarded him. He was boarded in the same run as Sala, so we thought he would just mind himself.
We arrived Sunday to pick them up and immediately heard Ethan barking.
And he's not a barker. I knew what kind of bark this was, and he was mad about something.
We walked inside and the woman who runs the place told us ALL about the weekend.
Sala was a "complete angel". No surprise there!
Ethan was a complete mess....
Frequently they let the dogs out into the yard one run at a time. Apparantly when they let Ethan and Sala out Ethan refused to come back in. They tried every trick in the book, but in the end it took four people and an hours worth of their time to capture him. After that he would not let anyone near him...
When we walked to the back to retrieve our dogs Ethan saw the owner of the kennel before he saw us standing there. The hair all along his back was standing straight up and he was trying to sound as fierce as he could. As soon as we said his name and he saw us it was like a complete turnaround, though. We entered the kennel and he was the first to cover us with kisses (and he has never kissed us before...). He even let the owner of the kennel pet him! Thankfully she knows his background and understands that he is not a mean dog.
We had a wonderful weekend, but I am very happy to be home where I know all of my pack is comfortable and happy.
