Promise stopped by this evening to visit Cinder and take Slick home. The two puppies wrestled the entire time that they were together. Cinder started out being dominant, but Promise rallied and held her own.
Our last day with Slick was much like the prior ones. He was quiet and calm around the house unless Cinder was pestering him. The only thing that really piques his interest and gets him excited are other dogs. I would say that Slick has a very high PLAY drive.
Lisa and I will miss having Slick around. He reminded us so much of Buddy. He would race to his crate at meal time, slipping as he attempted to corner on the wood floor. He handled Cinder much like Buddy handled Echo. And of course they both were happiest seeing their canine pals.
However, we think that Cinder will miss Slick more. Without a dog in the house, we are going to have to seek out opportunities for continued canine interactions and educational opportunities.
