Jerri, Apple and Nellie are coming along a lot better than I anticipated in such a short time.
Nellie is timid but quite curious. She watches everything you are doing. If you approach her stall she will move away from you, however if you stand there long enough she will come over but will stay out of arms length.
Jerri is going to take a great deal more time. She does not trust and it is by the grace of God that she allowed Theresa and Joseph their few minutes to hold her and pet her. For a brief few moments she relaxed when they were petting her, but you could see fear in her eyes as if she was waiting for something bad to happen. Sad.
Then there is Apple the Mooch. Apple loves attention and wants it all. What a personality this girl has. Very loving and VERRRYYYY food or shall I say treat motivated. She wants all the attention and she wants it all for herself. She expects you to have goodies in your hand. She wuffles at you in a very deep voice and it begins as you walk out the back door and she sees you...very funny.
It has been a short time since their arrival but we believe we have made excellent progress.
