The Pampered Pooch

Nora continues to progress in her training.  She sits on her own now, of course, with a treat.  From the sitting position, she will go into a down position every time her inmate gives her "down" command. He plans to continue working to perfect the sit command and work on "down" from an upright position.

She still runs on the big field twice a day and seems to enjoy that time although it's never for very long.  She loves playing with her inmate and just being with a person.  They walk the track around the field which she enjoys. After playtime, they work on training in sessions that are 10-15 minutes each.

She is a very sweet dog to both people and the other Greyhounds in the program.  She shows no aggression when playing with toys or when approached while she is eating.  She had a bath the other day which she seemed to really like.  She knew she was being pampered and she was soaking it in!
