Lots of Socialization Today!


Today was a preety busy day for Emmy. This afternoon, Amy invited the Admissions Tour Guides over for a study break (they are getting ready for finals this week) and a few came to visit Emmy and play. Then, Emmy went on her first "official outing" off of Hope's campus. We needed to pick up some things from Walgreens to Emmy went with us! We weren't there very long, but she did very well! And, she certainly did attract some attention! But then again, how often do you see a dog at Walgreens? After dinner, Bill's brother, Bobby stopped by to play and let Emmy release some energy...and well...she had a lot of energy to get rid of (see video!).

Emmy has been doing so well for us...she's getting less "mouthy" with both Bill and Amy and she is responding to her name about 85% of the time. We've also got "sit" pretty strong, but "down" is a bit of a struggle still but we're expecting that (all of these without verbal commands of course).We have also included a little clip of what "tummy time" looks like for Emmy...it is very calming for her although she tried really hard to wiggle out of this session.
