We took Bella on a walk on the levee today. Both she & Derek had a great time! |
Bella is doing a great job with her off-leash training. She would follow Derek to the end of the Earth I think! |
Life is GOOD in Jackson Hole! Two winning smiles :) |
Derek has been great at working with Bella on her training. She responds really well to him - the deep voice and towering stature are a bonus (along with the fact that Derek is always available for a game of fetch and a tummy rub). Bella has taken up residence in Derek's room - or wherever he is at the time!
All of the hours of training are paying off for everyone. We have been working with a fabulous trainer in town named Thomas Mikelson (I want to give "props" to all those who have made our move JH a positive experience - maybe some of you will follow us out here and need a great dog trainer). Bella is really turning into a well-mannered, Jackson Hole dog (i.e. off leash trained). We even took her into town a few times this week to practice shopping on the Town Square. All of the stores welcome dogs, and many even have treats! Next I need to teach her to carry my shopping bags :)
Sitting all the way down in the snow is too cold for Bella! |
Keep your tails waggin' as the Holiday stress may try to creep up on you!
