Marvellous Maddie!

This week on the "Maddie Knows Best" Show, we find ourselves dealing with relationships.  Like all new relationships you go through this exciting period of discovery; finding out each others likes and dislikes.  For instance, Maddie's trainer now knows she loves people and food.  Things that roll, not so much.  If it has wheels and rolls around, it is not to be trusted and should be given lots of space.  Toys??  Same reaction.  There is this innocent looking squeaky cow that Maddie scurries away from.  You would think it is really the Grim Reaper sent here to drag her straight down to you know where.  Sound dramatic?   So is her reaction to it.  Maybe she is showing good judgement.  After all, who wouldn't run away from a squeaky cow?

Training wise, Maddie is making great progress.  The big challenge is distractions.  She is more interested in her surroundings that focusing on the task at hand is difficult.  No worries though.  She is a champ and progressing nicely.

*Breaking News!!!!*  This just in...We have toy play!  I repeat.  We have toy play!  Earlier this morning the retired racing phenom known to the civilized world as Maddie was spotted playing with a stuffed squirrel.  You could say she was going nuts over the squirrel... Get it?? Squirrel...Nuts...

Maddie is an amazing greyhound and it is obvious that her trainer now has a best friend for life.
