Jumping Right In To The Training Routine

Olivia’s inmate trainer says it’s been an amazing week!  Olivia has been exploring and settling in to her new environment.  She was a little timid at first but has settled in nicely.  She’s made great progress with leash walking and is doing better on the shiny floors.  

They’ve been working on “hurry,” “wait,” “release,” “kennel,” “heel,” “bed,” “stay,” and “leave it”.  She knows her name well and makes great eye contact.  As her confidence builds she’s lifting her head more and wagging her tail with happiness.  

She had her nails trimmed for the first time this week and didn’t seem bothered by it all.  She doesn’t mind getting her teeth brushed.  So far her favorite thing to do is lay around on her bed or go around to everyone for attention.  Her inmate trainer says that he has no doubt that Olivia is going to do great with training!
