Sweet Ava is a young labrador retriever girl. She arrived this evening for 7 days of on-leash training. While we didn't do very much training today we did introduce Heel/Autosit on a slip-chain collar. She did really well. She is a wiggly girl who enjoys the company of people and dogs so she was happy to play with Ace and happy to sit for a pat. She got Heel almost immediately and was walking nicely at my left side in a matter of minutes. When I stopped she would stop and look at me and only needed the Sit command and some guidance before she would sit down.
She has settled nicely into her kennel and has already made some friends here. I look forward to teaching this girl this week. Labs are always fun. Look for a longer post tomorrow. We will continue working on Heel/Autosit and we will introduce Implied Stay and Down as well. Should be exciting!
