Heavenly Gal

Dear Future Family,

We just wanted to write a few lines to tell you about Cherub, but first let us explain the meaning behind the name. The definition of Cherub is “a winged heavenly being, any of the second order of angels, usually ranked just below the seraphim and better described as excelling in knowledge.” So as you continue reading, you will come to understand why her trainer chose this name. On Thursday, when she came in on the hauler, Cherub was one of the happiest dogs out of the 15 that came. When her trainer got her back to the dorm she was very interested in everything. She greeted everything and everyone with a wagging tail.

So far, Cherub is the happiest dog that her trainer has ever worked with, not to mention the smartest. He has been hand feeding her and using all of his time to create an unbreakable bond. He worked with her on the small things like kennel, release, wait, heel and basic leash walking. She is already so close to mastering them. He just started working on bed and as he wrote his most recent update, she was lying on the bed right beside him in the middle of the day room. He is looking forward to testing her skills over the next nine weeks and will keep you updated on her progress.
