[Jesse watches his foster mother from the window.] I have to admit that I am always a bit surprised when I get a foster dog that has been homeless for a long time that is not antisocial or aggressive. I am amazed by how much sweetness and affection they still have in them. You would think those long months living in a kennel will really take their toll. However, Jesse is so absolutely sweet. He loves people. If he could, he would Velcro himself to my leg. Shadow would have been an appropriate name for him too. It if funny though, because I can see that he likes other people as well. He spent much of yesterday either at my feet and going upstairs to lay near the kids. He is particularly fond of our boy child. It was like he was so drawn to both places and he just couldn't decide so every few minutes he was back and forth, back and forth. His crate is also upstairs and he likes to rest in that, though given the chance her prefers the bed. (Bad foster momma!) He has been two days without the belly band and no accidents inside! His pattern definitely seems to be the first day of trying to "mark" and then understanding that he has to do that outside. Speaking of outside, Jesse has had enough of that. He would prefer to be inside...always. :)
He very much likes his routine, and if I am late for our dinner routine he will pace around in the kitchen to remind me. :)
