Such a Smart Girl

Paige has had a wonderful week!  Her inmate trainer says that she is so smart and loves to learn.  She enjoys playing with toys and has shown no aggressive behavior toward anything.  She has learned to “sit” and will now sit and relax before mealtime.  When her trainer sits the food down she waits politely until given the command "kennel" to eat.  She eats in her kennel so the command “kennel” is given to release her to eat. 

Paige knows all of her basic commands:  hurry, let’s go, kennel, release, wait, heel, sit, here, down, stay, and bed.  She can be a little slow following through at times, but she understands what she’s supposed to do.  Jump is still a work in progress as she’s a little unsure about jumping onto the shiny bench they use at the prison, but her inmate trainer believes she’ll gain confidence soon.
