So, this post was supposed to focus on the fact that I got Eva’s Convert harness in the mail but something else huge has happened in the last 24 hours so this is sort of a double huge post. So, we got Eva’s harness, and I love it. I am pretty sure it fits perfect and as someone who has always used no pull harnesses I can say I am surprised with it’s ability to keep Eva at an appropriate pace. This is good cos I was fairly nervous about the entire front strap being velcro. Boy- was I nervous! 

But it held her in great! We’ve used it a considerable amount because Eva loves going on walks, and since it’s been over two weeks since her operation I’m slowly reintroducing her to the back door steps that are slightly steeper than the front yard steps, and made out of tile. They have grip strips on them but the handle assist on this harness is SO helpful in making sure that I can help ensure she doesn’t slip and fall.

which is great, because now we have this thing under our feet all the time

THIS IS BOWIE!
We call him bubba a lot. He’s a big chubby silly baby. He’s fumbly and dumb and a giant puppy. He’s a rottweiler mix and he’s really sweet to Eva, she seems so happy about him! They met and absolutely adored each other. He LOVES her! She pretends she doesn’t like him until he falls asleep or is outside and then she tries to mother him to death. She’s pretty good about sharing her toys, unless she’s already playing with something. Then she’ll antagonize him until he wants it and then bark at him for trying to take it, and he’s a baby so he gets scared at her for barking and she feels big and strong and accomplished. He just came home yesterday so I’m sure we’ll figure it all out, this is all so new to all of us. Luckily he came from a home with lots of other dogs so he’s used to it, and Eva’s a big love bug so even if she barks a hard game that’s as far as it ever goes.

I think everything is going great! I am more sad about the addition than Eva is- because half the time she’s more interested in him than she is in me! He’s not very keen on walking and he’s a lazy butt so I get some alone time when I take her for her few walks a day we do around the block, and that’s nice. I don’t ever want her to feel like she doesn’t get enough love or doesn’t come first. She’s always gonna be my number one.
