Back-On-Track ........Ok-- so looking at this, my gradual conversion to the realms of unbalanced-ness has been creeping up on me for a good few months! Ive known boos sneakily been taking advantage of this in her sneaky ways, as she does- Ive even joked about it at work! As subtly as Ive slipped out of balance, Boo has taken it upon herself to subtly rule the roost, make the decisions, get her own way, and most importantly do everything I ask in her own time-which is generally unbelievably slow! Tonight we went back to basics- simple mind tricks I called her to invite her to snuggle up- she raised her head looked at me... ignored me, and in a delayed response a good few minutes later decided oh Ill come over now! Normally Id say come on then snuggle in anyway I need a hug- tonight I put my own human emotions aside and I said nope sorry that wasnt quick enough. Confused she led down a little way away from me wondering why I was sat on her bed and she wasnt. A while later I did the same thing...and got her same Pupcake Princess response of I suppose I might come over but in my own time. With my same response to her first attempt to call the shots when she eventually got up, she walked through the house looking for another bed to lay on- confused again by my sudden mindful black and white approach. After sitting in the doorway cogs-a-turning she settled in the hallway. After some time I called her again with the same one-time approach. Super Nanny check us out! This time guess what!-she came straight to me, waited nicely to check she was allowed right on to the bed---and this is where she snores happily next to me, more balanced because of her owner has at last noted and more importantly acted on her returning faults! That not to say Boo wont have to remind me anytime soon- I am only human after all. But for now at least... lets see if getting out the front door, down the stairs and into the car tomorrow morning follows tonights understanding and not the in Boos own time approach!!!
