BOING BOING BOING!!! This girl goes a mile a minute! She is getting Heel/Autosit really nicely but when she sits she quivers and you can tell she is getting wound up for a great big spring into the air. Down is pretty hard right now. She will do it but she tries really hard to just kind of squat and bounce right back up. Her Implied Stay is really pretty good, we are working on more and more distractions for her.
She is getting along with most of the dogs here. She likes male dogs a lot more than girl dogs and she likes submissive males the most. She is getting on great with her roommate Loki. She and Kylie probably won't ever be bosom companions seeing as they are both dominant females but they are tolerating each other (Kylie had to assert herself and remind Pearl that Kylie is bigger and stronger than her). She did not do well with the toy poodle who is her size and easier to bully.
Tomorrow we are going to do more of the same obedience. I am determined to get her laying down nicely tomorrow. I am also going to get her running next to the bike. As of now I have not been able to get her exercised well enough and I think a good sprint around the property will do wonders for her nervous energy.
All in all, she is doing fine for a young Jack Russel Terrier. She still has some growing up to do but she won't finish that until she turns 2...if her owners are lucky.
