Playing with Riley

Harper's affection for Riley continues to grow. Although Riley is overly friendly and rambunctious with adults, she is very sweet, gentle and considerate with Harper. In return, Harper adores Riley. Every meal ends with Harper handing over a few bites of her meal to the puppy. Harper doesn't realized what she's doing yet - she is just reaching out to pet Riley and Riley is slyly licking out out food from the palm of Harper's hand. Harper is deliriously happy to get some kisses from Riley who is always very gentle when stealing her treats.

Harper also loves to watch the puppy play. She is infatuated with her bones and rope toys. When Ross plays tug of war with Riley, Harper will squeal in excitement. When it's Harper's turn to play, Riley will very respectfully take the rope from her when she lets go. Or, other times, will refuse to take the rope until Harper has become bored with the game and sets it on the ground. Ross and I are so happy that Riley is great with Harper -  she is better than we ever expected!
