From our trainer in Austin, who continues to perfect the work with dear Lucia and her SD, Lily. The trainer writes:

“Hi! Lucia and Lily worked on distractions yesterday at Petco. Lucia and Lily passed their PAT last weekend but want to continue their training sessions, improving Lily’s focus on distractions.

Lily was able to get close enough to the cat! We also worked on squeaky toys as well!

Lucia is so dedicated to perfecting Lily’s training and focus that I have no doubt that Lily is just going to get better and better!”

I personally have to say that in talking to Lucia, her determination to excel beyond expectations with Lily is truly inspiring.
