party time!

I went to a party last night, and after awhile, I brought the dogs out of the car. There was a keg outside, so people were hanging out in the misty cold yard. The dogs ran around and played, and eventually Mona snapped at Daphne (who always hassles her to play) so I let Mona go back to the car. Daphne came back to the party. We eventually moved inside, where she would stay on the area rug and strain to visit people without letting her back legs off the rug. She did get all 4 paws off the rug in order to reach the cat food once. The woman who lives there is interested in having her. Her partner didn't display a lot of good sense in trying to relate to Daf. He picked up both her front paws as she tried to duck back and looked away. Later he was picking her up or trying to get her on his lap. I do that, but somehow when you grab her from the back end, she flops over onto my lap. She was struggling. So I don't know how comfortable I would be with them having her. Maybe they could dog sit while I am traveling, if she does not have a new home by then.

I thought it was good experience to be at the party. She ran around the yard and socialized with everyone. She was very wiggly the whole night, and turned out to be a great party dog. I told her once not to eat the cat food and I didn't see her go for it again. As I was trying to leave, I was delayed by all the Daphne goodbyes. She was a real hit.
