Yesterday Mommy talked to a nice vet on the phone for a while. Apparently she's starting something called "homeopathic treatment" for me. She says that she hopes it'll help me be more confident and also fix my potty problems (I only like to go potty in our backyard--nowhere else!).

As part of this, Mommy has to keep lots of notes about how I'm behaving, so once I get my remedy dose, she can figure out exactly how things are changing. She's also been walking me around the neighborhood for 10-15 minutes on-leash when it's potty time so that she has a baseline for how I act, and we'll know if the remedy helps me potty.

So Mommy is going to write down how I act on our walks and any weird stuff that I do at other times. Apparently the vet said that we should take note of whenever my tail is between my legs, since this is a good indication of my state of mind, and we can use that as a measure of how well the remedy is working (i.e. is my tail between my legs more/less often after the remedy?). It should be interesting!

I'll try to keep all of you pups updated on my progress!
