Completion of Level 1 Academy

Our first Intern Academy has arrived at completion. It was wonderful working with Julie and Will in teaching the basics of dog training, and starting them on the science of dog training.

We had a wonderful hard working week of learning new concepts, and practicing mechanical skills.

Our rescue dogs, Lilly, Donna, and Ben were a trial the first few days, but we finally got them started. It was hard for the dogs, because they are over a year old, and have grown up in rescue. They are in wonderful shape, and absolutely gorgeous hound mixes. Their personalities are astonishing for long term rescue dogs who aren't living inside a home.

We also included Sidley, an Australian shepherd about six months old, and Zeke, a two year old Chocolate Lab.

Sidley is a very fortunate young miss in that she was adopted at a WalMart store. Totally on a whim, as a very young puppy. Bonnie has worked this little girl into her pack of two adult Great Danes, who I am sure at times ask mom why she did this to them. Anyway, Sidley has had a wonderful week working with Julie and Will.

Zeke was in the training center working with Kat, and adoring long walks around the hayfield after his training sessions. Zeke is a rescue who has been with GreenePets since February. He was an owner surrender at fourteen months of age, because without training he had become too boisterous for the children in the home. The owners would not subscribe to a training plan to help Zeke stay in the home. Truly their loss, this guy is a very sweet and loving dog who now knows what is expected of him in the dog human relationship.
