Puppy love

Emma is convinced that she does not like dogs, especially when they jump and lick her.  In reality barking has a greater reaction with her.

Since so many people we know have dogs, and one day we might like one, I'm keen to de-sensitize her to this fear.

On Friday we went over to visit Melissa, who you may recall has a teacup Pomeranian named Harley.  (A grandiose name for a fuzzy rat!!). 

When Emma was younger than 3 we have video of her with Harley, and she was fine.  On Friday, not so much!

However, by the end of our hourlong visit, she was not only throwing the ball, chasing him and stroking him, she was telling him to lick her hand!  "It feels warm."

She can't wait to go back and see him!

Oh, and fun with Leighton too!!
