Socializing Breakthrough!

I am SO happy to report that today, Ace and my husband went to the atelier of a photographer (Xavier) who works in the same building as us. Ace was on a very loose leash in the presence of Xav, and did not try to hide behind my husband's legs when first being introduced.

After 6 treats dispensed in the hand of Xavier, Ace allowed the latter to pet him on the top of his head! This is HUGE! I couldn't believe it when my husband told me just how zen Ace was with being touched, especially from above. Today has been a wonderful day already, and it isn't even evening yet. :)

Otherwise, I have also done my part for Ace by putting up fliers in our complex asking for volunteers to come spend 5 minutes in the courtyard with our pup. I'm hoping I get at least one person to respond, but the more the merrier. I put up a pretty adorable photo of him on the ad, so hopefully people at least LOOK at it.

So happy! ^_^
