A Giant Step For Helga

Helga and her trainer have had an exciting week getting ready for doggy graduation and making sure her basic commands are polished for when she goes to her forever home.  

One very positive step forward per her trainer, Helga is able to climb stairs all by herself!  She needs a small nudge at the beginning and then she takes over and climbs up the stairs.  When Helga gets to the top or the bottom of the stairs, she looks for her treat and will wait until she gets it before moving.   Her trainer is still working with her on the “Stay” and “Heel” command and hopes to have them mastered by the time she leaves.

This cutie pie will be very missed.
