Gloves and Bedtime

Thank you for your comments! Everything is so helpful! I bought myself a pair of gardening gloves and Aussie and I are becoming better friends, when he lets me know he is ready, I go and get him from his perch and we go for walks, a bit of apple etc. I even slightly got to pat him on his chest - unt...
