I got an email update about Moose today. I had sent Alan an email a few days ago asking how his anxiety level is and if he had met any people. The dogs that I met that he was referring to were AWESOME. Super friendly and outgoing. They were not that way at all when they arrived.

Alan also posted some photos of Moose this week. The red colored dog in the photos is Rock, who is apparently one of Moo's best buds. His other best friend is Tessie, the big dog in the bottom photo. I should mention, it's super cool to see Moose around a horse. He and farm animals were never exactly friends. He always was way overexcited and super loud about it.

Here is the email:

Hi Caelynn,

Glad you got a chance to see your Moose's photos. He's been outside (on long line) with the normal bunch of guys that are allowed loose when some visitors came. Although he didn't wander over to try and meet them, he was non-reactive, Which was nice to see.
What you have to understand is, it's not about meeting a whole bunch of people, it's about letting go of their fears through play and happiness and feeling secure.
You met a bunch of guys when you were here, they all come here for Moose type issues. Once they're happy, then they meet people and are still happy.

have a great week.
