On the day this report was due we heard about a dog needing help in Spokane, but we haven\u2019t had an answer to our message to the owner. She looks like a young dog, and she is having seizures despite medication. We have to be careful before taking a dog with a medical problem, but if we hear back we\u2019ll ask for a release to speak to her vet. Like all Facebook dogs, we have no idea whether we\u2019ll hear anything more.<\/p>\n<p>Sophie and Tessa are warming up more to Kathy, although I still can\u2019t get close unless it\u2019s bedtime and I\u2019m handing them a bedtime snack while they sit in crates. Here is a recent photo of Kathy sitting on the lawn combing Tessa. When Kathy is in the yard both dogs will approach her for scratches, and seem to enjoy the attention. We expect to visit with Kathi and Fena soon and we\u2019re looking forward to that.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_723\" style=\"width: 650px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-723\" class=\"size-large wp-image-723\" src=\"https:\/\/www.nwsams.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/tessa-kathy-1024x776.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"485\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.nwsams.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/tessa-kathy-1024x776.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.nwsams.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/tessa-kathy-300x227.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.nwsams.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/tessa-kathy-768x582.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.nwsams.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/tessa-kathy.jpg 1390w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-723\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Tessa enjoys grooming<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Abby has been on Prozac for a month and has calmed a little when food is around.
