Surviving visitors :)

     Look at those big puppy eyes!!!


Keda made it through having visitors today. We had a small early family gathering for Christmas, no kids, nothing too active but Keda was still a bit stressy at times. She can be so sweet and fun when she is relaxed and comfy and life is familiar. Then when the environment changes to "out of the ordinary" -- new people enter and my own dogs get excited-- then comes out stressy Keda. Sigh....
She gets on the alert and worried about herself. Seems she wants to join the fun but gets overwhelmed and a bit growly.  We then know that it's time to tell Keda to have a "time out". 
When the environment changes back to familiar and calm she will again become sweet Keda. 
Keda in picture above is just with me! She is relaxed 'n' happy!! (Although she has a little "Grumpy Cat" expression here she isn't! She is just tired after a long day-- me too!!!)
Im hoping in time Keda will handle life's little inconsistencies better. 
Even with her crabbies we still LOVE her and she loves us! She is WONDERFUL in so many other ways. She always wants to be in the mix and so sooo loves her mama, she wags her tail, she gives kisses, she is curious and has such nice manners and no crate even needed!!!
At this time she just really needs a sweet someone to understand her and accept her for where she is in her journey! 
"Step by step, Keda... You'll get there"!

All is calm... All is bright... Sleep in heavenly peace... g'night Keda.
