Hi Lizbud,
I am thinking that the upcoming heat cycle may be also contributing to her pacing and wanting to go outside all the time. Hopefully like you have all said she will adapt soon and enjoy her new home surroundings. Maybe when the heat cycle is over we will see a change. She goes back in 3 weeks for her vaccinations and then we should be able to schedule her to be spayed. That might calm her down a little too. I think with Bev's dogs being older and kind of laid back now that Skinny's reambunxiousness has them just a little overwhelmed. So I am asking her to hang in there to give Skinny time to adjust to all the changes and her heat cycle to finish. They may be able to work with her easier then.
