SO, I think most everyone knows that Bella and I are doing an obedience training class right now. We just had our 4th class tonight and we have 2 more to go! She is doing well for the most part! When we get to class she just really wants to play with the other dogs and that is not allowed. I love the teacher though and she is helping me out so much! Unfortunately, Bella requires more attention from the teacher than all the other dogs. She is just so hyperactive! My teacher, Sylvie, just keeps saying that Bella believes she was born to be greeted by everyone.
Well, tonight she also said that she thinks Bella needs to be tested for A.D.D. Some of the exercises are just so hard for her because all she wants to do is play and meet the other dogs and people. I am switching her diet (again) to a food that is supposed to help dogs with A.D.D. and then she is going to get tested next week. If she does have it then that will definitely answer a lot! I get so impatient with her because she is just so hyper, has a hard time listening and is hard to control. Anyone who has met Bells for less than 10 minutes knows this. Despite what some people think, I have spent a lot of time with her trying to get her to listen to me. My teacher assured me that it wasn't just me but also something that is going on with her mentally. She is seriously like my baby! I love that dog so much. Anyway, there are some oils and maybe medicines that she can go on to help her out if it turns out she does have A.D.D. And I have to learn to be more patient....
Also, I included this on here because I think Bella looks like Ed from The Lion King. It may be more apparent when you are in person with her and she gets really hyper. Cate Bush has some pictures of Bells that I think looks exactly like Ed in the face.
