Dixie Lynn has learned the down command this week. She's done it a few times on her bed and also in the aisle in the dorm. She will sit well for meals, and is working on responding more quickly to sit in other places.  Her focus on commands is best when she's in her dorm or in a calm environment. She walked fine across the compound this past week;  there was a day they walked when it was very busy and active and she was nervous. She does a good heel and walks well at rec. Dixie is the sweetest dog and so gentle. When her handler is playful with her, this little girl wags her tail. She does so well when she focuses and is comfortable. Her handler continues to work on broadening that comfort zone.
