Ear Cleaning- - No, Frozen Stuffed Kong- - YES!

I have tried to clean Lemans' ears for the first time 4 weeks ago and then just this past Tuesday. She really does not care for it one bit. Over the past few days She's gotten so much better at teeth brushing. This is because she has learned the verbal "down" command and will do it when I ask her to (such a smart girl!), making her stay put as long as I have treats for her. She still doesn't do/understand sit *scratches head*. I also tried dremeling her nails (after a long hot walk) and overall, she did great!

When it gets hot out I like to give my dogs frozen stuffed kongs. Lemans enjoyed it for the first time on Wednesday and she had a wonderful time figuring out how to get the kibble and peanut butter out. The funny thing is I've had kongs laying around the whole time but she has never shown any interest in them. Now, after having them stuffed with goodies, she likes to chew and play with them even when there's no treats inside.

She now loves to hang out and play down in the basement(it is about 10 degrees cooler down there)but she also likes to run up and down them like a maniac. This has added to the swelling in her leg, so I've put the baby gate back up and limit her use of the downstairs :(

Lemans really is an energetic goofy 3 year old once she comes out of her shell. She has been a complete joy to have around. She's stolen our hearts with her beauty and great personality, and she'll steal yours in no time! If you would like to give Lemans a loving forever home please contact NLGA.
