My neighbor's dog Scruffy came to stay with us for a week and even though he and Chelsea had brief romps out front, I wondered how they would behave when he invaded her space. It turns out Scruffy was very possessive no doubt fueled by a feeling of abandonment if only for a few days (dogs have no sense of time). I was so proud of my little Chelsea for her sensitivity and hospitality. She gave him her favorite pillow, chair and spot on the bed but the real love came when she walked over and laid her favorite toy in front of him and nudged him to take it when she saw he was blue. They says a man's best friend is a dog...I think in this case, a dog's best friend was a dog as well.
Good show Chelsea!
