Learning New Tricks

With each passing week Axel and his inmate trainer grow closer together.  His inmate trainer says that Axel is exactly the type of dog he would hope to own one day.  Axel interacts well with other dogs and has a calm but playful personality.  He stays attentive to what he's commanded to do and wants to please his trainer.  

This week Axel learned "bang"!  Pointing at him and saying "BANG" will make him fall over and play dead!  A sight to see indeed!  While working in some extra commands his inmate trainer continues to strengthen the basics as well.  

His inmate trainer says that with another week down and graduation approaching he knows that Axel will be moving on to his new life soon.  He's going to be missed, but his trainer knows he's going to have a wonderful future.
