Gigi is acting more like a dog

Last night she was sneaking slippers and chewing on them. She and Lucy, our other Sheltie, are rough-housing everywhere, picking up detritus from our evergreens in the yard and tracking it throughout the house. And this morning, she really barked for the first time. We were surprised that this skinny little thing has a deep, "manly" bark--octaves lower than Lucy, who outweighs her by ten pounds. Who knew? So our house is messier, Nancy's slippers are a little tattered, and it is noisier. But we are excited, because Gigi is so much less shy and timid. She's always been so sweet. Now she's acting happy. More like a dog. (We're still watching her like a hawk--we want no repeats of her great escape.)
