First of all, antibody test came back a while ago. No antibodies, so that's no autoimmune thyroiditis. Mark wants to re-test due to the less than optimal results. I sent results to Jean Dodds too and she confirms this. So I'll retest her thyroid in about 6 months. It's not urgent, as her aggression issues are just fine.
Secondly, Skye is generally doing ok. Sitting room is usually all in one piece now when both Emily come in as well as me. House training still dodgy when it is wet outside, otherwise quite good now.
She has taken to breaking out of the car crates though when I walk away at obedience shows... She'd then sit in the front seat waiting for me... If I was sure she didn't touch anything, I'd leave her there, but I can't be sure and I don't want to come back to a wrecked, undrivable car - though I have to say the three times this has happened, she hasn't touched anything.
I have now cabletied the back crate (the strong one) so hopefully that'll keep her in place. LOL

New walk and test results
TEST RESULTS:
On Friday, we got the first set of test results back, which is T4, freeT4 and TSH. T4 is on 17, which is very close to the lower end of normal... so it looks like Skye might also be hypothyroid. Just waiting for the second half of the results which will tell us whether she has antibodies or not.
NEW WALK:
Today Emily came with Lucas again to do some more toddler socialising! And it went really well and was a good improvement from last time. Dylan was totally happy and asleep most of the time (tired from vets and a walk afterwards), Flash still worried occasionally but overall much happier, Jesse was amazing and invited Lucas to play several time by play bowing at him (though sometimes realising that he was too brave and backing off a bit then LOL) and Skye pretty confident, but needs to learn more not to take Lucas' toys. We were really pleased.
Afterwards I took Skye and Jesse to South Norwood Lakes walking with Emily up there. It was the first time I took them to that park and they loved it. They are now nice and tired. I did a bit of training there too and they responded very well to everything I asked. And I have to say I was also well pleased with their road walking as there was very little pulling. Good little spangles, they were. :-)
