Rachel is making rapid progress.

This morning I took her for a long walk with me, on a short leash, and she paced at my side in a ladylike manner, not protesting, although I held the leash pretty short.

The time came, of course, when she forgot it and lunged, and was caught by the throat. It happened just once more. The next time, starting to leap, she checked and glanced at me, as if to say, “Oh, I forgot! Excuse it, please.”

It did not happen again.

When I praise her and caress her, she goes into an ecstasy.

I have been keeping her alone with me as much as I can.

When the boys are assembled on the terrace or in the living room, Rachel and I are apt to be off by ourselves somewhere. Sometimes I go up to my room early, taking her with me.

I make myself comfortable against pillows in bed with a book, and Rachel lies stretched out, a ravishing figure of grace on the dark burgundy carpet. She knows there are puppy biscuits on the bedside table and sometimes gets up, stretches, yawns, and comes nosing to my hand for a pat or a biscuit, then turns away; and with a deep sigh of comfort, flops. She lies with her head on her paws, her eyes flicking to me at every page I turn.
