After spending time in a concrete prison, giving birth, shuffling across the state, taking time to become healthy again, today was set aside as a quiet day for Anara to spend playing with her friends. To date all of Anara’s playmates have been German Shepherds and she is perfectly okay with that. Anara loves playing with Wubba’s, Kongs, balls and tug toys. She plays hard and then snuggles up next to the first dog to lie down. She loves to run, play, chase and share her toys with whichever dog is willing to play chase me games. She prefers to be the chaser and will readily drop the toy so the other dog can pick it up.
Anara reminds me of a young Mom. She really loves her pups and is genuinely concerned for them. But what she loves the most is spending time with other dogs and humans. Time alone or time cooped up with her pups is tolerated but play, attention and human contact bring life to this sweet young lady.
The little girls are growing up. Their time with their Mom is closely regulated. Anara has a lot to teach them and she spends time carefully mulling over each little girl. Short bursts of time with her pups provide a lot of stimulation, communication and strengthening of their relationship. Finding that harmony is important to both Anara and her girls. I think we all strive to find that delicate balance in all our lives.
