Pepper has had a great week. He's gotten lots of love from everyone. He's doing great with his training, even doing a stay on the shiny floors without his feet sliding from underneath him as they used to. He's still cautious with stairs. Pepper does several additional commands, including touch, hug, kennel and visit. He does visit, which is resting the head on someone's lap, a lot and in different ways! He spent a day with one of the handlers who works in the garden area and when she bent over to do something on the ground, he rested his head on her back!  He also does a standing visit, where he'll come up to someone who is standing and put his head on their stomach and look up at them with those eyes that make you want to give him the world. He also does visits when someone is sitting or lying down and he'll do a hug, with his paws up and put his head on your shoulder. He's an amazing dog.
