Well my cute little friend Roxie goes home tomorrow. She has been such a fun pup to work with. As big as she is it is easy to forget that she is just a baby. In fact I was surprised to realize that she lost two teeth while she was here! (I found them on my carpet). Her foundational training is complete but she has a lot of upkeep work to do to make sure she keeps her training as she matures. Luckily her Board and Train package came with 3 follow up lessons and, like all of my board and trains, she gets a discount on individual lessons for her entire life so as she grows up we can make sure she is still being the best Roxie she can be.
Something funny she has gotten into the habit of doing is when asked to Down from the front of her handler she likes to ooze around on the ground on her side like a Slinkie until she is comically stretched across the grass or driveway. It's not the most dignified down I've ever seen but hey, she can put her own spin on things if she wants to so long as she lays down.
Roxie has made us laugh for two weeks straight. I have greatly enjoyed working with her and look forward to our follow ups. She is on her way to being a truly delightful adult dog.
