Raja came to us a little shy so it took a couple of days for her to get use to her new pack. She is an extremely intelligent little girl. It only takes a couple of times showing her something and she "gets it". She is a real pleasure to train. She is nervous about stairs and we are working on building her confidence with that as well. Even though we had a few delays in her training, she has made up for it. She has progressed very quickly over the last several days. She is now 90% off-leash. She is very controllable in the yard with only the remote collar. She will heel, sit, down, stay, place, come and sit and wait at doors before coming in or going out. We are also working on her excitement with the other dogs. She does well with Mackenzie, but I am also teaching her to respect Mackenzie's "space". Here are a few pics of Raja in her first week.
