When Lily first came out of the pound I almost had to get rid of her immediately as she went after the cats way too enthusiastically. One reason I did end up hanging on to her is that I have never seen a dog try so hard to do what was wanted of her and boy, was it hard for her to hold back from going for the cats.
Six months later, I turned around this evening to see this:
Poor Lily drowning under Quincy's big butt! :lol: Quincy loves dogs and is both determined to have them love him and his big belly and fearless -- he was the first to just stand his ground when she tried to chase the cats. But still I never believed Lily would one day actually be curled up with any of the cats.
However now they will all routinely sleep near her on the sofa but only Quincy has put himself not just within reach but on TOP of poor Lily. She is like a heat seeking missile and has discovered that Quincy is kind of like a heavy orange duvet and nice and warm, so there are some benefits to tolerating fat cats.
