I was looking through my YouTube channel and wanted to share a bit about Luka - I am so proud of him.
When he first came to me he was a shut down, Eeyore of a dog. At 6 months old - he acted like an old man. He was afraid of any noise, people were not to be trusted and he was either very tense or completely unresponsive. Any fast movement made him run and playing with people or toys was out of the question.
After about a month, he finally came around enough to start learning to play with us a little. One day at the lake - Tracy got him to play a silly stalking game that he thoroughly enjoyed and we got to see a sliver of his puppy side.
Now almost 4 months in, he is such a joy. He is a true snuggler, he seeks attention at home and warmly greets most people at work. He can play games with toys and even play 'catch me if you can' games with us. He is a joyful dog who I have grown VERY attached to in a short span of time.
He is truly a sight to behold when he is running free and being a pup and I give Ayla a HUGE credit in helping me reach him. She showed him through her quiet resolve and loving nature that people are not to be feared, and what fun being part of a family can be.
My dogs continue to amaze me everyday - I am so thankful they are in my life!
