Boy, we all needed a weekend! Team Training is so exciting, but exhausting. Sky is adjusting well. We are still trying to figure out her personality and nuances. We have been working on reinforcing some of the cues while we are at home.
Ryan has been taking her for walks. We have been using the Comfort Trainer for walks. She's not a big fan of it, but she tolerates it. Ryan feels like he has more control when she wears it. Our goal is to eventually transition to just the regular leash once they learn each other's behaviors better. As you can see from the picture, they have incorporated walk breaks into their walk.
He also took her for a walk with his wheelchair on high speed. She really seemed to enjoy it. It was funny to see them going down the street. We found she really likes to chew. Right now Ryan is in the bathroom (Sorry, Ryan!) and she is in there with him chewing on a marrow bone.
I got some great video of her retrieving a fallen pencil. Ryan is also shaping her to push a soccer ball with her nose. She is doing so well at it. She's a fast learner. Unfortunately, I can't seem to get the videos to post. :-(
