Jumping through Hoops (Literally!)

Trax has made great progress this week and has almost mastered all of his basic commands. He only has trouble with two of the basic ones, heel and stay. He is getting better with them every day along with working on the basic commands and a few extras. The extras are spin, speak, bounce, and hop. Hop is the one that his trainer is most proud of. He holds a hula hoop in front of him and says hop and then Trax jumps through it. With bounce, his trainer holds his hands closed in fists, sticks his thumbs up, and says bounce. Then Trax will jump in the air. They have a thing called show-and-tell every Friday, and this past Friday Trax got the chance to show off his extras to some staff members. They were very impressed with how well he performed. Not only is Trax super-smart, but he is also a softie. He'll be just as happy playing with a toy or curled up on a bed getting a good petting. Whoever is lucky enough to get Trax will not be disappointed. See y'all next week for more updates!
