Mellow Maya



Next week, it will be a year since we chose Maya from the Green Co. Humane Society. We chose her because she was more motivated by human interaction than treats, and she was more cautious with our then 3yr old Sylvia than any of the other dogs.




I think it was a good choice. When we are gone from home for very long, Sylvia will say "I miss Maya." Maya is like her best friend. She puts up with a lot from Sylvia. She allows scarfs to be tucked into her collar for dress up games, and crowns to be placed on her head.



Recently though, Sylvia devised a new game, which I was very impressed at Maya's tolerance for.

The new game was to put pencil top earasers on Maya's individual claws, so it looked like she had long nails. Then Sylvia would put rings on her. Maya just flopped over on her side, and put up with it all. It sure did look funny.
