Feeling Good and Learning to be a Pet

Delilah has really transformed from the first night we received her. She turned into a totally different dog in the matter of days. The only way I can really describe it is that it was like watching something be reborn. 

We are almost positive that she has never really been someone's "pet" before. When she was rescued she was living outside on a fruit orchard, just roaming the land. According to the farm workers she just "showed up one day". 

She had so many things to learn about the life of a "pet dog". She has learned what a toy is and what it is for. She has learned what treats are and is responding to the word "treat". She has learned how to use a dog door and sleep on a dog bed. She has learned what bathing and brushing are. 

She has such a happy and bright personality. When we come home she is so excited that her tail literally spins in circles like a helicopter. She wiggles and squiggles with glee. 

Here are some pictures of Delilah on the mend and becoming a happy girl...
