Ice, Ice Baby

This week Kayla has shown great improvements. She has come out of her shell and now explores the dorm greeting people with a wagging tail! Her trainer is so happy to see her open up. No one is a stranger to Kayla!

Kayla loves ice! This is actually a good thing for her trainer, since she is not treat or toy motivated. This helps him teach her new things, which she absorbs like a sponge. I know her trainer has said it before and he'll say it again . . . it surprises him how smart, sweet and loving Kayla is. She knows all of her basic commands well except she is a little slow to "sit" or "down". No worries. She's smart and will be a pro at them very soon. She also knows a few extras:  "leave it", "easy" and "water".  Kayla also lets her trainer know when she needs to go out by whispering softly, so he has to keep an eye out for that.  LOL.

Kayla learned "jump" this week. No problems there. Show and tell was this past Friday and Kayla did the best yet. She ran through her commands like a champ!
