The first two or three days she ate resulted in diarrhea. Her digestion of food has fixed itself and she has put on 13lbs in 10 days.
She is up to 57lbs from 44lbs. The lead leash and walks in the backyard have worked up to 1 miles walks on a leash with my wife. This dog loves women and children and the neighborhood little ones love her. She is a little jumpy around men including me. My children came home from college this weekend and she immediately greeted them with affection. She is getting better at reading us to know what she should do. This is all i wanted. We have been a two dog family for three years. My wife has always wanted to get a giant schnauzer when our 15 year old Basset hound dies. She died a couple of days ago.
She had many health issues and we were relieved that she passed on.

I spent Saturday with my son and when i came home there was a giant dog house in the backyard, a big dog bed in the family room and a new large engraved dog food bowl with the name Daffy in the kitchen. It looks to me like my wife has made the decision on what to do with this dog. I agree with her. The walking her on a leash challenge is headed in the right direction.
My next concern is will she return to me if i let her loose. I am not sure how to test this. I hike many miles with my Schnawzer. I was thinking about bringing Daffy. I am not going to do this until i know she will always return to me. My wife really likes this dog I would hate to loose Daffy. If this happened i know who would be sleeping in that big new dog house. It would be me.
