Notes from Operation Pets Alive

Ellie's learning that people aren't so bad and is becoming more trusting of us. Now that she's not focused on survival she enjoys playing with toys, chasing my pups, cuddling, sunbathing and napping in her comfy beds. She's doing well with potty training and usually goes outside but if she can't make it outside she will go to her potty pad. She sleeps through the night in her kennel and is learning to walk on a leash. Ellie is working on basic commands and already knows how to sit. She's truly a little doll and will make a wonderful companion.
