Kirstin, I know exactly what you mean....things will be going ever so well and then all of a sudden it's like they don't even know who you are! I guess part of being a "toddler" ! lol Oh well, little do they know, you are the only anchor they have right now for stability. Every time I go into the pen, Apache acts like he's never seen me before in his life! But if I'm outside the pen, he comes up to me for a pet and me to pick him some grass.........go figure! Keep up the good work and it will all come together!
