Strangers

I’m so proud of Zoe! Yesterday I took her with me to pick up Den from work - I’m still so thankful that he works with great people who don’t mind me going in there with a dog. They just adore Zoe. Well we got into Den’s office, which is where Zoe usually relaxes a little, and two strangers were in there working, plus Den. Zoe did not like that, she hid behind my legs. Well as we chatted and stuff Zoe did manage to relax slightly, and the woman who was in there crouched down and put her hand out to see if Zoe would be okay with getting petted or whatever. Well Zoe actually sniffed her, didn’t pull away when the woman touched her, and Zoe even licked her hand a few times! Serious!! I was thrilled. :D

Of course then we got out into the hallway where it’s SCARY and Zoe wouldn’t go near anyone for anything, but that’s okay. Baby steps.
