Cookie has had a very good and productive week. She knows her basics - sit/stay, down, advanced heel bed, wait and kennel - and is ready for more advanced commands. She's doing much better heel walking; if she starts to pull, all it takes is a little leash pop and saying "easy" and she walks right beside her handler. Cookie was scared of toys but that was worked on this week and within 10 minutes she was throwing the toys around; it was great to see and a great start! She's doing really well with the other dogs, including the CCI dogs. There is one officer Cookie especially likes and she always comes out of her kennel with her big, broad all-teeth smiley greeting to say hi to this officer. It's the sweetest thing to see!
