Lily's Training Blog



Lily's first day was very promising. Although a rough start, she began showing us a lot of promise.

Lily was very nervous coming out of her crate. She appeared that she would bite if pushed too far. However, after working with her in the house as well as on the leash, she has started to view us as the pack leaders. She almost seems relieved to realize that she know longer has to protect herself. It is still early, but I feel that leadership is really going to help this little girl with her fear aggression.

She is doing great with the obedience. She is remembering her past classes and falling back into that routine quickly. She is learning how to respond to the collar quickly. I am very excited about the coming days. I believe Lily is a very intelligent little girl, just misunderstood.

This is a picture of Lily performing "Place" along with Mara, our German Shepherd.
