Curious Cutie

Well, Miss Katie is beginning to come out of her shell! She is adjusting to her new environment and is not as easy to spook when she hears strange noises. She is now curious instead and she really loves to play with squeaky toys. She will sit or do a down to get them.

She is still very active on the big yard and loves to run, and she will come to her trainer when he calls her. She likes to play peek-a-boo around the outside latrine which is about 10 feet long. Her trainer will chase her from one side to the other. He says peekaboo, and she runs to the other end where he is already there and it goes back and forth until they're tired. She is so sweet! She is prone to give hugs and crawl up on your lap when you are sitting! But this behavior is not recommended for trainers to encourage, so her trainer is changing her on that point. She just wants to be so lovey-dovey. 

As far as her commands go, she will sit, down, sort of stay, sort of wait, bed, kennel, and hurry. And also she does give very well. This is very encouraging considering it is only week 2. Tune in next week to see how Katie progresses!
