Friday, January 29th

Toby had his Fluoxidine (Reconcile/Prozac) this morning. He will be getting it every other day for two weeks. The morning routine was more normal, with Toby coming upstairs with great energy, but he did settle down and again responded to 'good snuggle'.

I worked with him on 'lure training' which I have to master more. He did respond very well with it and does seem to enjoy engaging in because for the moment, it is new. Yesterday I brought home a new Mr. Squeaky toy for Buddy. (He and Toby disemboweled his other ones) That meant a couple of hours of Buddy running around the house, squeak, squeaking his toy. Early this morning I found Toby with it between his paws and seemingly teasing Buddy by not letting him near it. That's new.

In the new column this morning, Toby followed me to the stairs, but did not find the need to follow me up them just to be where I was. He also went outside by himself and wandered a bit on his own - and he was the one who wanted to go out - and he was not seemingly afraid of the door. Go figure. This is a single door that leads from my computer/studio to the patio. He is more afraid of the doors that go from our kitchen to the patio. I'll have to figure that one out.
Maybe it's because this is HIS room also. He sleeps here and finds refuge here.
