nyssa – Jul 22, 2004 12:00 AM

Today Nyssa is 71 days old. She willingly went into the program, showed no interest in greeting the Arctics, preferring to rest. She did well during the program, submitting to Grizzer after a tug of war over the deer skull. At one point, Grizzer sat on top of her while she continued to chew and protest as only Nyssa, Ms. Vocal, could do. At the end of the program she was a little testy with the nanny and snapped and had to be subdued by staff before making her exit. She was fine being picked up out in the wolf yard and taken to the pup enclosure. She was very playful so no weights for her either.
