Lettie’s learning her commands well. Sit/stay needs work and she still hasn’t figured out shake, but all her other commands are right on target. She is also doing OK on stairs, though a little slowly. This past week Lettie’s handler had the flu for a few days but is better again. While she was in bed, alternate trainers took Lettie outside for walks, fresh air and play time. This sweet hound stayed otherwise right by her handler’s bedside and even licked her face the day she had a high fever. Her handler couldn’t believe how in tune Lettie was with how she was feeling. She had never licked her face before.
