Finally, here is a new picture of Leo. Leslie had a professional photographer take a couple of portraits for me! #SOhandsome ;-)
I'm SO excited about going up to meet him for the first time in just a few weeks! *Squeeeeee*
I don't know when he'll be coming home with me for good yet, but I promise to keep you posted.
Now, for the good stuff. Here's the latest update from Leslie:
Your boy is doing really well. Applying himself with his heart! I had a wonderful work session with Michele P. and I was so proud of Leo's efforts!
We are working on the platform training - he's learning about finding and maintaining "working position." I am focusing him on LEFT HEEL positon and FRONT and finding both positions. Once he's in position, he's becoming comfortable seeing me from there and is getting a high rate of reinforcement for maintaining those positions! He now loves to work and is "in the game" :)) He waited patiently for his turn and was very happy when he got his chance to work! He's also learning the foundation skills for WAIT and COME.
Leo and I are looking forward to your visit!
In addition, Leslie was recently interviewed for an internet radio show, here's the information for those of you who would like to give it a listen:
I'm eager to share a new experience with you - a radio interview show with me that was recently posted to a website radio channel. You can find it by going to a site called www.thrivingcanine.com and clicking on the RADIO SHOW tab. It will take you to a list of pre-recorded radio shows. One was my show, called: Breeding Dogs For Desired Traits. It's an hour long interview I did with Dawn who owns the station :)
I hope you enjoy it! It plays on Thursdays at 6:30pm and also on a revolving schedule you can check by clicking on the "now playing" button.
Happy Holidays!
I want to wish you all a festive holiday season however and/or whatever it is that you choose to celebrate (or not). May your dreams come true next year as you've certainly helped my dream come true!
Mwah,
Mal
