As I've said before, Dandy's back legs and tail are extremely tight and rigid due to years of stress and fear. So, each night we spend time massaging and TTouching his legs and tail. What's happened as a result has been pretty amazing - Dandy is starting to get pushy with us, asking for his back end work, pretty cool that he's starting to ask for what he wants. This last weekend my mom was visiting (Dandy has met her a couple of times) and by the 2nd day he was backing into her, pushing for her to work his back end! He did need to carry his baby for support but, this was pretty awesome. Dandy struggles with "asking" for what he wants especially with people he doesn't really know. So the fact that he did this (and he's not been feeling well) is progress. My mom was more than happy to rub his back legs and as you can see he really enjoyed all the touch. Way to go brave boy!
