Perfecting The Basics

Yet another productive week of training for Axel!  He and his inmate trainer have been working to perfect the heel, here and sit commands.   They have also been working on ignoring distractions and focusing on the job at hand.  His hesitation to walk on shiny floors is improving, but is still a work in progress. 

Axel, also known as Scooby-Doo, continues to bring joy to everyone in the dorm.  He enjoys relaxing in the grass and can be truly lazy at times. 

Next week the inmate trainers will swap hounds for a week to encourage command response and time away some their normal surroundings.  Axel will be missed by his inmate trainer, but he has no doubt that Axel will do well!
