𝗩𝗼𝗹𝘂𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗲𝗿 𝗡𝗼𝘁𝗲𝘀 Very vocal when by herself in the run, but the second I walked in she was on my lap. She?s tolerated me giving her a crown too. She definitely enjoys being pet and being near a human. She didn?t want me to leave her. She?s on the smaller size so she would be great as a lapdog. 😛

𝗦𝗵𝗲𝗹𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝗡𝗼𝘁𝗲𝘀: 9/24: Ruthie is calm and relaxed in her kennel. On the leash she is very jumpy and vocal . When walking her on the leash she is walking but turns aorund and barks towards me and dogs. Seems more of out of excitment for getting out of kennel. She is hyperactive after getting her form the chicken coop. I placed her there to see if it would help her be more calm after her outside time but it did not. Possibly does better as a leash walk only. After some time on the leash she does appear to do much better on the leash. 9/22: Vocal and jumping on kennel door. I went to leash and dog began jumping up towards me once she was leashed. I would continue to walk forward ignoring the behavior, she would then jump up and bark towards me this time. I had to keep turning to avoid her. Placed her in the runs and she continued the behavior. I went back to leash her up after sometime. She was doing the same. Placed her back in her kennel and she was vocal . I covered her kennel then offered a rawhide. It helped her busy in her kennel. 9/20: Approaching kennel, Ruthie came to me whinnying with dilated pupils and a wiggly body as I babytalked to her as well as offered treats. She ignored them and held a slightly forward leash and would begin to spin on it. Noticed that when placing her inside of the run or kennel, she would attempt to dart out before closing the door completely. Once left in the runs, her whines convert to non-stop vocalizing and paw
