Learning New Things

Swap week!  This week the inmates exchanged dogs to work on training commands and to give the dogs a chance to adjust to a new trainer and time away from their primary handlers. 

While with his temporary inmate trainer Leo learned “lap” and “Bang/Play Dead”!  He followed through with all of his basic commands really well!  He may need to work on "sit" a little more as it seems to take him a minute to comply, but he does follow through. 

When Leo has to potty he will whine to let you know he has to go.  His temporary trainer says that recognizing his request will save on potty accidents. 

In just one short week Leo found his way into his in temporary trainer’s heart.  His temporary trainer says that Leo’s new family will not have any problems falling in love with this great dog!
